Abstract
Since plastics are suspected to adsorb orthophosphate, disposable-tip pipettes have been checked to determine their ability to be used in orthophosphate calibration. No adsorption has been detected through an experiment of standard preparation with and without changing the pipette tip. That is, the pipettes appear to be convenient for orthophosphate calibration.Keywords
