PIPETTE BULB

Whatsapp Order

 Product Description
A Pipette Bulb is a flexible, hand-operated rubber or silicone device designed to safely draw and dispense liquids into pipettes without the need for mouth pipetting. It functions by creating a vacuum when squeezed and released, allowing for controlled aspiration and expulsion of liquids in laboratory settings. Pipette bulbs are widely used in analytical, clinical, chemical, and educational laboratories to ensure safety and precision when working with chemical or biological samples. They are compatible with various types of pipettes, including volumetric, graduated, and serological pipettes.

Key Attributes
Basic Identification Attributes

  • Material: Rubber or medical-grade silicone. 
  • Design: Spherical or pear-shaped bulb with one or more valves or a universal fitting. 
  • Compatibility: Fits standard glass or plastic pipettes. 
  • Colors: Often color-coded by size or suction capacity. 

Physical & Chemical Properties

  • Elasticity: Highly flexible for repeated squeezing and long-term use. 
  • Chemical Resistance: Resistant to most common laboratory reagents and solvents. 
  • Durability: Tear-resistant and maintains suction over many uses. 

Safety & Hazard Attributes

  • Eliminates the need for unsafe mouth pipetting. 
  • Prevents accidental ingestion or exposure to hazardous substances. 
  • Non-breakable and low injury risk. 

Storage & Handling Attributes

  • Store in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight. 
  • Keep free of chemical residue; rinse thoroughly if contaminated. 
  • Inspect for cracks or hardening regularly to ensure suction efficiency. 

Regulatory & Compliance Attributes

  • Manufactured under safety regulations for laboratory use. 
  • Compliant with OSHA and biosafety guidelines (e.g., avoiding mouth pipetting). 

Environmental & Health Impact

  • Reusable and long-lasting, reducing waste. 

Can be disposed of as general lab waste when worn out (non-toxic).

SAFETY HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

Safety Handling Precautions

  • Ensure a tight seal with the pipette before drawing liquid. 
  • Do not use with strong oxidizers if rubber is reactive. 

First Aid Measures

  • Not applicable under normal use. 
  • In case of chemical spill during pipetting, follow lab spill protocols. 

Firefighting Measures

  • Combustible; avoid exposure to open flames. 
  • Use standard extinguishers (foam, CO₂, dry chemical) in case of fire
