Filter Use: Use the individual filter system to reduce volatile reagent ingress and protect the piston from corrosion .
Training: Only trained laboratory personnel should operate the HiPette Pipette for clinical diagnostic applications.

2. FIRST AID MEASURES

Sample Splash: If a biological or chemical sample splashes into the eyes, flush immediately with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention; if on skin, wash with soap and water.
Chemical Exposure: Refer to the relevant Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for the specific chemical being handled for detailed first-aid instructions.
Mechanical Injury: If the pipette tip punctures skin (sharps injury), wash the wound thoroughly, and follow the facility's exposure management protocol for bloodborne pathogens.
Autoclave Burn: If handling the pipette immediately after autoclaving, use heat-resistant gloves; if a burn occurs, cool the area with cool running water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
