Calibration Practice to Preserve Integrity of Volumetric Equipment Precision and accuracy are what it is all about in the scientific laboratory. If you’re titrating a solution or making up set volumes, your results are only as reliable as your volumetric kit. This is when calibration is important—your instruments are measuring what they should. Volumetric equipment :such as burettes, pipettes, graduated cylinders, and volumetric flasks It’s not just a step!— it’s a quality control necessity!  Even the highest-quality custom lab glass can acqui re slight differences in shape over time due to wear, temperature changes or handling. Over time regular calibration checks and adjusts for these differences thus preserving the accuracy of measurement. A mismeasured milliliter can be a million-dollar mistake.  – Few places is this quote more fitting than in a pharmaceutical or chemical laboratory where the smallest error in volume can mean a ruined experiment or a costly regulatory pr...

In the world of exacting science there is no equal to the uses of volumetric flask i n laboratory. This chemistry lab equipment f or preparing accurate solutions and dilutions is used in educational and industrial chemistry labs. A volumetric flask i s commonly pear-shaped and has a long neck with a flat bottom. It has a single graduation mark, which is in the form of an engraved ring that indicates the capacity at a single point. Typically, graduation marks may be at 100 mL, 250 mL, 500 mL, or 1000 mL. The slender neck contributes to a reduction of error in volume measurement when sample is added. “In science, precision is key—but not just for science, for everything.” This saying really comes to life when you are in the lab using v olumetric apparatus . Volumetric flask uses in laboratory in clude standard solution making, titration setup, and chemical analysis etc. Unlike graduated cylinder or measuring cylinder des tinated for Laboratory use, volumetric flask provides a highe r ...
