Pasteur pipettes, available in both plastic and glass materials, serve as a staple in laboratories for transferring small volumes of liquids with precision. These slender, tapered tools are named after the famous Scientist Louis Pasteur and are indispensable for tasks requiring careful manipulation of liquid samples. Plastic Pasteur pipettes offer the advantage of being disposable, reducing the risk of cross-contamination, while glass Pasteur pipettes can be sterilized and reused, providing an eco-friendly option. Sterile Pasteur pipettes ensure that samples remain uncontaminated during transfer, a critical factor in sensitive experiments. The flexibility of plastic models and the durability of glass ones cater to a broad range of laboratory needs, from clinical to research settings. Their ease of use, combined with their accuracy in liquid handling, makes Pasteur pipettes an essential tool for Scientists aiming for precision and reliability in their work.
