1. What is a pipette tip? Pipette tips are cone-shaped, hollow plastic objects that fit at the end of a pipette to cleanly aspirate (aspirate) and dispense small amounts of liquid. The pipette tips work with the pipette to form an air-tight seal so scientists can transfer accurate volumes of liquid from one container to another. They are typically made of polypropylene, are single-use, and are available in a variety of sizes and volumes to suit specific applications and pipettes. Since the pipette tip is in direct contact with the target sample, it can significantly affect the experimental results. Discarding pipette tips between each experimental step helps prevent cross-contamination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
