Micropipettes are used to transfer liquids on the scale of microliters.

-In general micropipettes work best in the middle of their range (half of their "number", 100 µl for a p200, etc.). Volumes less than 1 µl can be tricky to work with. Use a P10 micropipette instead of a P20 and/or extended pipette tips if you have them.
