Title:
METHOD FOR CORRECTING OBLIQUE SUCTION BY PIPETTE, AND PIPETTE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/193613
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are a method for correcting such that a correct suction amount is obtained even when a pipette is used in a tilted state, and a pipette. An electric pipette (1) according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a cylinder (5) provided with an air layer for suctioning/discharging a fluid, a piston (6) that moves up and down within the cylinder, a motor (9) for causing the piston to move, a control means (11) that controls rotation of the motor, an incline sensor (12) for calculating the angle of inclination of the pipette, and a memory (16) in which are stored a sensor output value (F0) from the incline sensor at a time when the pipette is in a vertical state and the relationship of a real suction amount with respect to the angle of inclination. During a suction operation, the electric pipette (1) monitors the angle of inclination (θ) of the pipette from a value from the incline sensor (12), and, when oblique suction has been performed, discharges the fluid in an amount of a differential volume (Vd) that was suctioned in excess.
