Repetitive Strain Injury
Research shows that using a pipette for long periods is associated with an increased risk of hand and shoulder ailments. Pipette users may experience pain, numbness or to minimise the risk of RSI and prevent poor pipetting performance.
ergonomic points to consider when selecting a pipette:*
Light in weight and comfortable to hold Good grip with no sharp edges or ridges Suitable for right or left handed use
Neck and shoulder pains can often occur due to poor posture or technique during pipetting sequences.
Our Good Pipetting Practice seminars cover the effect that using the wrong pipette or having bad technique can have on your health.
Convenient plunger or main button position Minimal force to push plunger Easy to set and read dosage Positive feedback from button operation
