HAND-PIPETTIERVORRICHTUNG

摘要

The invention provides a hand-held pipettor in accordance with an embodiment that includes a piston that is received in one end of a cylinder, a pipettor tip that is removably secured to an opposite end of said cylinder, a manually driven unit that reciprocates the piston through a selected stroke to aspirate fluid into and to expel the thus aspirated fluid from the pipettor tip, a mechanism including a stepper motor responsive to control signals for adjusting a range of the stroke, and a voice recognition system that decodes verbal commands and outputs the result to a central processing unit, which in turn generates the control signals.
