pipetting

Pipetting is a precise method of transferring small volumes of liquid using a specialized instrument called a pipette. It allows scientists and laboratory technicians to measure and move exact amounts of liquids, essential for experiments, tests, or reactions. The process involves controlling the pipette's mechanism to draw liquid into a thin, narrow tube and then carefully dispensing it into another container. Proper technique ensures accuracy and prevents contamination, making pipetting a fundamental skill in scientific and medical laboratories.
