Uses

 * To transfer small amount of liquid

===Precautions ===
 * 1)  Never exceed the values on the micropipette. It should not be adjusted below zero μl. The P20 should never be adjusted above 20 μl, the P200 over 200 μl and the P1000 over 1ml. To exceed the range will put the pipet out of calibration.
 * 2) Never force the volume adjustor dial. It is because either you are exceeding the limits for the pipette or the pipette is broken.
 * 3) Do not drop the micropipettes.
 * 4) Always use smooth motion when dealing with micropipettes. To prevent damaging of pipettes and maximise accuracy of measurements. There should be no “snapping” noises.
 * 5) Always keep pipettes upright. When not in use, place micropipettes on the rack. Do not lay a pipette on the bench top. To prevent damaging of pipettes caused by liquid run down.
 * 6) Be careful when withdrawing liquid, make sure to release the plunger slowly. To prevent liquid running into the pipettes. Especially with large volume pipettes (200-1000μl).
 * 7) Always choose proper size tip for each size pipettes.
 * 8) Always use appropriate size pipette for the volume you are measuring.
 * 9) Always use a new tip for each different liquids.
 * 10) Always dispose of tips in appropriate waste containing.
