Sterilization

The entire pipette can be sterilized by autoclaving it at 121°C (252°F) (minimum 20 minutes).

No special preparations are needed for autoclaving. You can use steam sterilization bags if

needed.

After autoclaving the pipette must be cooled to room temperature for at least two hours.

Before pipetting, make sure that the pipette is dry. We recommend that you check the

calibration after every sterilization cycle to achieve the best possible accuracy.

The table below lists possible problems and their solutions.
