“Setting Tolerances for Pipette Performance” is a free report on guidelines for setting up appropriate tolerance limits for precision and accuracy. It also discusses how to fine-tune tolerance settings to suit laboratory requirements as well as the factors that influence tolerance settings. A table with suggested initial tolerance limits for pipettes of volumes ranging from 1 to 5,000 microliters is included. In addition, an illustration shows the process of fine-tuning tolerance limits for a sample pipette population.
