Product Overview
A 1 to 5 mL pipettor covers the buffer, media and reagent volumes that are too large for a 1 mL pipette and too fussy to measure in a graduated cylinder. Signature EHP stands for Ergonomic High-Performance, the name printed on the handle and the booklet. The plunger button reads 1-5 ml, and the certificate in the box records accuracy and precision at 1000.0 and 5000.0 µL.
