We searched for many years before we found some inexpensive micropipettes we could recommend to schools. Unlike other cheap pipettes, these 'Volac MiniPipets' are accurate, autoclavable and robust. They even have a 'double action' like conventional micropipettes costing ten times as much.
ABOUT THESE MINIPIPETS
We currently supply six sizes of these high-quality fixed-volume micropipettes. The tops of the plungers are colour-coded. All the pipettes are fully autoclavable to 121 °C, and have a two-stage thumbpress to enable the last drop to be blown from the pipettes (see the usage instructions below).
