Creating a Pipette Method
Use this function to create a pipette method. A pipette method aspirates the same
volume as it dispenses. The total actual volume dispensed, however, may include
an air gap volume. A pipette method performs the following tasks:
•
With or without a time delay (of up to 60 seconds), aspirate an air gap volume
and then aspirate an amount of sample fluid into the left syringe (if using a
single syringe instrument) or into the right syringe (if using a dual syringe
instrument).
•
Dispense both the sample fluid and the air gap volumes from the syringe.
•
Wash the syringe.
