Congratulations on acquiring your new MiCroMan® pi-

pette. MiCroMan is suitable for many different types of 

application, including pipetting volatile, viscous, dense, 

or high surface tension liquids. it is a quality product 

from Gilson, which is fully iSo8655 compliant, CE labeled 

(conforms  to  the  EC  directive  on   

in  vitro

  diagnostic 

medical devices). 

The six models permit precise and accurate pipetting 

of  viscous,  dense  and  vaporous  liquids.  They  also 

allow  contamination  free  pipetting,  avoiding  vapor 

contamination and cross-contamination. M25, M50 and 

M250, with thin and long CPs are especially suited for use 

with long or narrow vessels. M10 and M100 autoclavable 

models are especially suited for 100 % contamination 

free pipetting. 

Enjoy the following features:
-  MiCroMan  pipettes  are  equipped  with  a  positive 

displacement mechanism that isolates the aspirated 

liquid from the body of the pipette. The positive dis-

placement mechanism prevents the sample-to-sample 

contamination that can result from the aerosol effect. 

-  MiCroMan uses disposable capillaries and pistons. 

Changing these parts, which must be the only ones 

to make contact with the aspirated liquids, can pro-

vide absolute protection against the contamination 

caused by carry-over from one sample or reagent to 

another. You simply have to change the capillary and 

piston between each assay; they are automatically and 

simultaneously ejected, thus avoiding any risk to the 

operator.

-  MiCroMan is equipped with a direct reading volu-

meter that allows precise and continuous adjustment 

of the required volume. MiCroMan is permanently 

calibrated at the manufacturing stage, the capillary 

and piston are positioned automatically, therefore it 

requires no further calibration.
