Abstract

A transfer pipette includes a draw tube, a first squeeze bulb, and a second squeeze bulb. The draw tube includes a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen. The first squeeze bulb defines a first fluid chamber in fluid communication with the lumen at the proximal end, and the second squeeze bulb defines a second fluid chamber in fluid communication with the first fluid chamber. When the first squeeze bulb is squeezed into a compressed state, a volume of air is evacuated from the first fluid chamber. When the first squeeze bulb is released from the compressed state, an intended nominal volume of material is drawn into the draw tube through the distal end. When the second squeeze bulb is compressed, at least a portion of the intended nominal volume of material is dispensed from the draw tube through the distal end. Kits including the transfer pipette, and methods for transferring material with a transfer pipette are also disclosed.
