Abstract

A selectable volume precision liquid dispenser apparatus and method of use. The dispenser apparatus includes a graduated, segmented elastic body with an interior space having different regions corresponding to different volumes where different liquid containing chambers are separated by one-way valves. Pressure applied by a user to one of the different chambers causes the dispensing of a precise amount of liquid through an inner conducting tube having openings to receive liquid in each of the different regions, and an outlet for dispensed the liquid. Release of the pressure allows the elastic body to return towards its original (resting) shape and draw liquid from a reservoir into the previously dispensed region in preparation for the next dispensing operation.
