Flashcard preview

What prolonged treatment can borosilicate glass tolerate?

Prolonged heating and sterilization.

How do volumetric transfer pipettes differ from graduated pipettes?

Transfer pipettes have one calibration mark; graduated pipettes have subdivisions for measuring and delivering fractions of their capacity.

How does an air-displacement micropipette separate its piston from the sample?

With an air cushion.

What samples are positive-displacement micropipettes recommended for?

Viscous, dense, or problematic samples.

Which reagents suit most analytical procedures, and which are used for maximum purity?

ACS analytical-grade reagents suit most procedures; ultrapure spectrograde or nanograde reagents minimize interference.

Which reagent water type is purest and used for high-accuracy standards?

Type I reagent water.
