CALIBRATION ACCURACY: METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED!
NALGENE®
UNBREAKABLE
P I P E T S offer all the accuracy you've been accustomed to from glass—without any of the hazards. Every Nalgene pipet is individually calibrated for maximum precision. The limits of error do not exceed 0.06 ml for the largest size pipets. What's more, you can read a Nalgene unbreakable pipet easily and accurately. Big, bold "Magni-Vue" markings, in vivid color, are fused on . . . permanently. These markings cannot be removed chemically or mechanically. Repeated autoclaving will not dim their original appearance. They can't fade, rub off, scrub off or wear off—ever! Nalgene unbreakable pipets are made of rugged, chemically-resistant polypropylene. This non-reflective material prevents bothersome light glare. You see the entire liquid column clearly. There's no meniscus to interfere with the accuracy of your readings. Nalgene unbreakable pipets are available in transfer, serological and measuring styles, sizes 1 ml to 10 ml. Priced from $2.10 to $2.80 each. See your lab supply dealer, or write Dept. 1112, The Nalge Co., Inc., 75 Panorama Creek Drive, Rochester, New York 14625.
