Abstract
A hand-held micropipettor having a construction to impede transfer of heat from a handle to a portion enclosing a piston chamber, and means for drawing room air along the piston to effect its cooling when the micropipettor is operated. A compressible piston seal is held in place with a retainer urged in an axial direction by a resilient element with an uniform force independent of the position of the piston.
