Micropipettes are common laboratory devices used to accurately dispense volumes of liquid samples. Micropipetting Techniques for Precision and Accuracy provides a thorough understanding of the uses and applications of single-channel micropipettes. In addition, students will learn how to operate volume verification equipment such as the Artel Portable Calibration System (PCS®). Each student will perform a volume delivery verification exercise as a final skill evaluation to assess the comprehension of proper micropipetting techniques.
- Entry-level bioprocess technicians and operators
- Microbiology lab technicians
- Quality control technicians
- Pipette calibration technicians
- Incumbent workers as well as professionals in the biotechnology industry seeking training and hands on experience using single-channel micropipettes.
- Introduction to Pipetting
- Parts and Functionality of a Single-Channel Micropipette
- Single-Channel Micropipette Handling and Volume Delivery
- Single-Channel Micropipette Calibration and Initial Micropipetting Volume Delivery Assessment
- Micropipette Best Practices
- Final Micropipetting Volume Delivery Skill Assessment
Students will:
- Recall the evolution of pipettes through history and their applications in common laboratory settings.
- Identify the parts, functions, and appropriate uses of micropipettes in common laboratory settings.
- Demonstrate correct micropipette handling techniques for consistent volume delivery.
- Interpret the relationship between accuracy and precision when comparing historical volumetric data.
- Execute a final micropipetting volume delivery verification skill assessment while applying best practices and contamination prevention strategies.
Delivered in-person in a classroom or lab setting.
