Pipettes are essential tools for accurately measuring and transferring liquids in various scientific fields, including biology, chemistry, and medicine. The accuracy and precision of pipettes depends on various factors, such as the design of the pipette, the operator’s technique, and the calibration of the pipette. Pipette calibration is a process of verifying the accuracy of a pipette’s volume measurements. The calibration process involves comparing the actual volume dispensed by the pipette with the intended volume. Calibration can be done using either gravimetric or photometric methods.
