A pipette bulb is the rounded part of a pipette which you squeeze the air out of, then release to draw liquid into the pipette.
If you are using a calibrated glass pipette, it will be a separate piece made of rubber which is fitted to the pipette.
If it is a simple plastic pipette then the bulb will be made of the same semi-transparent plastic, and the pipette will all be one piece.

What safety item should be used with pipette?
A pipette bulb or pipette filler should be used to safely draw and dispense liquids with a pipette. This device helps prevent exposure to hazardous chemicals and helps control the flow of liquids with accuracy.
What is a pipette bulb use for in chemistry?
A pipette bulb allow a liquid to be sucked up into the pipette, so avoiding having to use your mouth to suck the liquid up. Apart from avoiding often toxic liquids getting into your mouth, it also avoids contamination of the liquid.
How can a mouth pipette be effectively used in a laboratory setting?
A mouth pipette can be effectively used in a laboratory setting by carefully controlling the suction and release of liquids using your mouth, ensuring accurate and precise transfer of small volumes of liquids between containers. It is important to follow proper safety protocols, such as using a pipette bulb or pump to avoid contact with hazardous substances. Regular calibration and maintenance of the pipette is also essential for reliable results.
Difference between rbc and wbc pipette?
RBC pipette has graduations up to mark 101 while WBC has graduations up to mark 11. The size of the bulb of RBC pipette is larger than the bulb of WBC Size of the lumen(the hollow structure)in RBC is smaller than that of the WBC pipette
How do you properly calibrate a pipette for accurate measurements in the laboratory?
To properly calibrate a pipette for accurate measurements in the laboratory, follow these steps: Check the pipette for any visible damage or contamination. Use a calibrated balance to weigh the water dispensed by the pipette. Compare the measured weight to the expected weight based on the pipette's specifications. Adjust the pipette if there is a discrepancy by following the manufacturer's instructions for calibration. Repeat the calibration process until the pipette consistently delivers accurate measurements.
What is the accuracy of a 10 millilitre bulb pipette?
A bulb pipette class A has an accuracy of 0,02 mL.
What do you call the instrument that holds the pipette?
The instrument that holds the pipette is called a pipette bulb or a pipette filler. It is used to create suction for drawing liquid into the pipette and controlling its release.
Why bulb of wbc smaller than rbc pipette?
Rbc pipette is bigger than the wbc pipette to dilute the blood with fluid.

What is pipette made up of?
A pipette is either a glass or plastic narrow tube with a rubber bulb on one end. The idea is to put the open end into a liquid, after depressing the bulb. On releasing the bulb, a suction is formed and liquid is drawn up the tube. The pipette can then carry the liquid to another receptacle. On squeezing the bulb, the liquid is deposited into the new receptacle.
What is a rubber pipette bulb use for?
To transfer small volumes of liquid.
How do you properly use a pasteur pipette for accurate and precise liquid transfer in the laboratory?
To properly use a pasteur pipette for accurate and precise liquid transfer in the laboratory, first, ensure the pipette is clean and dry. Next, draw the liquid into the pipette by gently squeezing the bulb and placing the tip into the liquid. Release the bulb slowly to draw in the desired amount of liquid. To dispense the liquid, hold the pipette at a slight angle and gently press the bulb to release the liquid drop by drop. Be careful not to introduce air bubbles, and always handle the pipette with care to avoid spills or contamination.
How can a mouth pipette be effectively used in a laboratory setting?
A mouth pipette can be effectively used in a laboratory setting by carefully controlling the suction and release of liquids using your mouth, ensuring accurate and precise transfer of small volumes of liquids between containers. It is important to follow proper safety protocols, such as using a pipette bulb or pump to avoid contact with hazardous substances.

Why should a bulb be used on a pipette rather then your mouth when you are measuring a liquid?

What do you call the squeezy thing at the end of a pipette?
The squeezy thing at the end of a pipette is called a piston or plunger. It is used to control the aspiration and dispensing of liquids.
