6、3 disposableProthrombin pipets which are intended tobe used once only and then discarded.NOTE1Such pipets will only be expected to provide their specifiedperformance during the original operation.4.Classification4.1 This specification covers only one glass pipet as illus-trated in Fig.X1.1.5.Materia
7、ls and Manufacture5.1 The pipet shall be made of borosilicate glass,Type 1;Class B,or soda lime glass,Type 2,in accordance withSpecification E438.6.Physical Properties6.1 DesignThe Prothrombin pipet shall be made of onepiece construction glass tubing that is straight and with uniformbore and lightly
8、 firepolished on both ends.The pipet shall bemade to the dimensions as specified in Fig.X1.1.6.2 DimensionsThe pipet shall be made of tubing with aminimum outside diameter(o.d.)of 2.3 mm with an insidediameter(i.d.)of 1.7 mm.The uniformity of the bore shall be60.05 mm throughout the straight portion
9、 of the pipet.Thepipet shall be a minimum of 160 mm long.6.3 CapacityThe pipet shall be calibrated“to deliver”(T.D.)0.1 and 0.2 mL at 20C.Marking shall be as specified in6.5.6.3.1 Accuracy(see 3.1.1)The accuracy from stated vol-ume shall be 62.0%for the 0.1 and 0.2-mL capacity and shallbe determined
10、 as specified in 8.1.6.3.2 Coeffcient of Variation(see 3.1.2)The coefficient ofvariation from stated volume for the 0.1 and 0.2-mL capacityshall not exceed 2.0%and shall be determined as specified in8.1.6.4 Graduation LinesThe pipet shall be calibrated andmarked with graduation lines at 0.1 and 0.2
11、mL from the tip ofthe pipet.The graduation lines shall be 0.3 6 0.1 mm and shallcompletely encircle the tube.6.5 Pipet NomenclatureThe pipet shall be marked with0.1 and 0.2-mL markings slightly above the graduation lines.The pipet may be marked with the inscription T.D.20C,or themanufacturers or ven
12、dors name or trademark,or both.6.6 Blow-out DeliveryThe Prothrombin pipet is designedas a dual delivery system for the determinations of coagulationassays.When utilizing the 0.2 mLcalibration line,the tip of thepipet should contact the wall of the receiving vessel and allowthe pipet to drain freely.
