PC-100 enables the user to produce many kinds of pipettes including
pipettes with
a tip of several 10µm to be used for the experiments in biotechnology,
those with a
tip of a few micrometers to be used for the experiments in
electrophysiology, and
even those with a tip in the region of 1µm. In terms of producing
pipettes with
wide variety of shapes and tips, the function of Mode selector button
allows to
choose a pulling mode setting between one-stage and two-stage. Once the
value
has been determined, the specification of PC-100 allows the user to
reproduce the
same pipette as the last one. In
addition, the PC-100 applies free fall by gravity as
its pulling force (or descending by the action of a weight), thus it is
provided with
two types of weights; a light type and a heavy type, two pieces each
that is
attach/detachable respectively in order to adjust the pulling force. The
PC-100
enables you to pull various kinds of pipettes by all those settings of
output voltage,
pulling mode between one-stage and two-stage, and pulling force adjusted
by weights.
