THE PIPETTER consists of a reservoir flask t o which is attached an interchangeable head of SPECIFIC capacity. Both flask and head have ground joints. Calibrated directly i n milliliters of distilled water, t h e PALO PIPETTER'S accuracy is better t h a n 1%, or equal t o t h e reproducibility of t h e most costly a u t o m a t i c pipetting machine. APPLICATIONS • Making serial dilutions • Adding chloroform, strong acids, cyanide solutions, dnd solvents. • Qualitative and quantitative reagents.

UNSURPASSED! This Goldfisch Fat Extractor is, and for many years has been, the accepted standard for ap paratus of this type.* With it you can make solvent extractions in two to three hours that formerly required 16 hours, or overnight. Designed for samples not ex ceeding 5 grams and solvents with boiling range of 35 = to 60°, its efficiency permits safe accu rate results in determinations normally requiring larger sam ples. See your laboratory supply dealer or write today for full de tails and prices.
