A pipette tip has a blade formed along a forward end of the tip that functions as a cell scraper. The device is constructed to allow the tip to be articulated so that the blade contacts the culture plate's surface parallel to, or on a slanting angle relative to, the horizontal surface of the plate, when the pipette is held vertically. The bent tip may be used to pipette the solution, in addition to scraping the cells. After scraping, the tip of the invention can be used to collect the cell suspension from the culture dish. |
