TissueDB/Materials/Micropipette Tip

Micropipette Tip is a disposable plastic laboratory consumable normally used on manual or electronic pipettes. In medical simulation it is repurposed as a fine-bore terminal delivery connector. In the Cikla et al. 2020 Grapefruit dACA Bypass Simulator, a micropipette tip is used in the fluid-delivery path of the closed-loop irrigation circuit as an optional focal delivery terminal (nasal cannula prongs otherwise suffice).^[1]
