Your partner in the lab. 4 [email protected] About us BRAND in Wertheim When our company started in 1949, it was an adventure. From practically nothing, Rudolf Brand together with five companions created the foundations of the Wertheimer glass industry. In that same year, he founded our present-day company. Starting from the Wertheim facility, our specialists have steadily built up the company. The effort was well worthwhile! Today, BRAND is an important partner for end users in laboratories around the world. 6 [email protected] About us Factory and Production As the tasks multiplied, we have grown larger. One of the world's largest cleanroom facilities, with ap- prox. 6000 m2 of production space, of which the clean- room makes up 3200 m2. www.brand.de 7 About us Journey through Time Product development over the course of decades. What began in 1949 with 6 employees engaged in producing glass apparatus, glass volumetric measuring instruments, and thermometers, with continuous facilities expansion in the interim, led in 2013 to the commissioning of one of the largest cleanroom facilities in the world. After liquid handling products, the manufacture of high-quality plastic disposables for use in the life sciences area has become one of the most important production units at BRAND. 8 [email protected] 1949 1950 1957 1961 1967 1973 1963 1964 1979 1984 1986 1985 2011 1994 2005 1995 2008 2013 2012 2013 About us Goals With you in mind, we look to the future.

PURCHASING TIPS • Personalized Pipettes by Angelo DePalma, PhD • Low-Volume Pipetting by Mike May, PhD and Angelo MAINTENANCE MATTERS DePalma, PhD by Rachel Muenz Lab Manager 2017 1 LabManager.com Introduction by Trevor Henderson, PhD Pipetting is part of nearly every laboratory’s workflow. The goal of pipetting is to ensure maximum accuracy and repeatability when transferring fluids. Research and development labs in the chemicals, foods, materials, and paints industries use pipettes routinely. However, it is in the life sciences that the greatest number of pipettes and related supplies are found. This established technology continues to undergo improvements, most related to usability and consistency. If you’re looking to buy one, there are many different features to take into consideration before making your purchase, including ergonomics, low force, fitting, ease of use, reliability, accuracy, and precision. Lab Manager 2017 2 LabManager.com PIPETTES RESOURCE GUIDE Questions to Ask When Buying a Bath or Chiller by Lab Manager How does my sample volume influence which pipette is the best fit? Pipettes come in a variety of different sizes to suit whichever volume needs are required. If you know you will always be pipetting the same volume of liquid, then a fixed volume pipette will be best. If the amount to be pipetted is changing from sample to sample, then a variable pipette will be ideal.

  • GUIDE to PIPETTING Third Edition HOW the PIPETTE STORY BEGAN
    GUIDE TO PIPETTING Third Edition HOW THEHOW PIPETTE BEGAN... STORY HOW THE PIPETTE STORY BEGAN… Over a century ago, Louis Pasteur invented the glass Pasteur pipette to reduce contamination when transferring samples. The Pasteur pipette is still in use today. The next significant improvement on pipettes occurred in the late 1950s with the introduction of a handheld, piston-operated pipette as a safe alternative to potentially dangerous mouth pipetting. The first handheld pipettes had pre- established volume setting (fixed volume pipettes). Further improvement was provided with the more flexible stepper volume setting (variable volume pipettes). In 1972, Dr. Warren Gilson invented the first continuously adjustable pipette. As an original error-preventing feature, the selected volume was now clearly displayed on the Gilson pipette (direct digital readout). Today, Gilson precision pipettes are still the world standard for accuracy, precision, and reliability. Today, the company still maintains its continuous effort of creativity and offers innovative, robust, and reliable pipettes to help scientists in their daily work. The pipetting system is our core expertise, and we truly enjoy sharing this knowledge and experience with pipette users so that they may achieve their goals. This guide will provide you with keys to understand how pipettes should be used and to get the most out of them. Examples given are based on our own pipette range, but the techniques described are equally applicable to other brands of pipettes and tips. Gilson is one of

    Shared Analytical Services Laboratory Air Displacement Pipette Calibration University of Colorado at Denver October 28, 2003 - Revision 1.00 Page 1 of 7 Standard Operating Procedure Air Displacement Pipette Calibration 1 Background: An accurate pipette is one of the most important tools in performing accurate analytical work. An inaccurate or imprecise pipette will invariable lead to a poor analytical work product, regardless of how much care and skill is used in performing the procedure. With use (and abuse), pipettes will become worn and less reliable. To maintain a valid work product, the state of all pipettes must be periodically checked and verified. 2 References: 2.1 Curtis, RH.
