COLO.SCIENCE – NICHIRYO LE MICROPIPETTES
0.5–10 µL variable micropipette Nichiryo LE (single-channel)
The Nichiryo LE 0.5–10 µL variable micropipette is a light, ergonomic and economical tool for precise liquid handling in the low microlitre range. With digital volume setting from 0.5 to 10 µL in fine 0.02 µL increments, it is designed for accurate and repeatable dosing in research, diagnostics and quality control workflows.
Weighing only around 83 g, the LE series helps to reduce hand strain and the risk of repetitive strain injury in routine pipetting. An enlarged, streamlined grip, low-force push button and one-touch tip ejector make this model suitable for long sessions at the bench, particularly in molecular biology, microbiology and analytical laboratories.
Key features of Nichiryo LE 0.5–10 µL
- Variable volume 0.5–10 µL with digital setting.
- 0.02 µL volume increments for fine adjustments in low-volume work.
- Lightweight body (around 83 g) for reduced hand fatigue in daily use.
- Enlarged, streamlined grip and low-force plunger for ergonomic operation.
- One-touch detachable tip ejector for quick, clean tip changes.
Where does 0.5–10 µL precision matter?
- Preparing and dispensing primers, probes and enzymes for PCR/qPCR.
- Setting up reactions with expensive reagents in the sub-10 µL range.
- Loading samples and standards into microplates or strips.
- Small-volume dilutions and titrations in molecular and cell biology.
PRACTICAL USE & CHECKLISTS
Setting, using and checking your Nichiryo LE micropipette
In everyday work, the LE 0.5–10 µL is ideal for applications where precise low-volume dispensing is critical. The enlarged push button simplifies digital volume setting and makes it easy to switch quickly between volumes within the 0.5–10 µL range.
Good practice includes regular leak checks, gravimetric performance checks at 1, 5 and 10 µL, and visual inspection of the tip cone and ejector. When combined with high-quality compatible tips, the LE series provides reliable accuracy and precision suitable for regulated environments.
COLO.Science & equipment
At COLO.Science, Nichiryo LE micropipettes are offered as a practical option for routine and accredited laboratories that need ergonomic, low-volume liquid handling. The single-channel 0.5–10 µL (00-NLE-10) model is particularly suited for molecular biology and analytical workflows.
When selecting tips, choose compatible low-retention tips recommended by the manufacturer to maintain accuracy and minimise sample loss in the 0.5–10 µL range.
