Graduated Pastettes
For measured transfers of 1, 2, 3 or 5ml in fractions of 0.25ml to 1.0ml. Ideal for preparation of fixatives and stains, aliquoting and other drop by drop work.
Applications
Graduated Pastettes are marked at various volumes dependant on the overall size of the pipette. The moulded graduations make it very easy to perform quick measured liquid transfers of 1, 2, 3, or 5mls in aliquots of between 0.25 and 1ml depending on the pipette used. They are available in a range of volumes.
They are ideal for measured volume transfers, aliquoting, serial dilutions and drop by drop work.
Specially designed pipettes in the graduated range have been developed for particular applications such as the:
Graduated Medi for blood bag tubing
Small bulb graduated for pH meter maintenance
Graduated mini for slide tests and micro volumes
The spider measures between strands using the distance from the tip of its back legs to its spinners. Graduated Pastettes help to ensure accurate dispensing of fluids.
Ideally suited for cytology and slide staining techniques, measured transfers in microbiology, clinical sampling from blood bag tubing and sample preparation in chromatography.

Virtually every pipette in the Graduated Pastette range has a customer application story behind it:
“Can we have a smaller volume graduated pipette?”
Initial requests led to development of the 3ml graduated pipette (LW4111) It remains the most widely used pipette in the range.
“Can you make one with a smaller bulb?” The small bulb graduated pipette (LW4212).
“Can you make a Pasteur pipette with a thinner stem for reaching into blood bags?” This led to the Medi pipette (LW4336).
“Can you make this one with graduations?” Graduated Medi pipette (LW4274).
