Pipettes that use long or irregular operations (such as pipetting the liquid beyond the range of the tip will cause liquid to flow into the pipette) can cause the pipette to accumulate.
Solution:
After opening, you can use a cotton swab or a soft brush to pick up a small amount of water to clean the stains. For more stubborn substances, rinse the pipette with plenty of water, then dry naturally or in an oven at 60 °C. Do not use organic solvents for cleaning or ultrasonic cleaning.
