What does PIPET mean in Scrabble?
noun
technical
A slender tube, often fitted with a bulb, used in a laboratory to draw up, measure, and transfer small amounts of liquid.
A pipet works by suction, drawing liquid up into the tube through one end so a precise volume can be released drop by drop or all at once into another container. Chemists and biologists rely on a pipet for measured or exact-volume transfers that a simple pour could never achieve, from a single reagent drop to a carefully calibrated sample. The word is essentially the American spelling of pipette, and both spellings describe the same laboratory tool.
