The Pipette... On paper - philpense - 10-23-2014
Have a modest background in molecular biology from years past. Found a small nonprofit biotech lab with others similarly educated. I write to inquire if one can calculate the micropipette dial settings on paper before going to lab.
Wanted a way to use the desired volume and the micropipette size to confirm what the dial settings would show. Errors are infrequent here but can cost valuable time.
Even the experienced can be distracted. Guidance sought
