Реферат: A pipette (51) for repeatedly aspirating and dispensing a predetermined quantity of liquid. The pipette includes a hollow housing (52) having first and second extremities. The second extremity (52a) is adapted to removably receive the pipette tip (41). An ejector (67) is carried by the housing and has a first extremity (68) disposed within the first extremity of the housing and a second extremity (69) movable vertically about the second extremity of the housing. The ejector is movable from a first position for permitting the pipette tip to be securely mounted on the second extremity of the housing and a second position for pushing the pipette tip off of the second extremity of the housing. A spring (76) is carried by the housing and is compressed so as to store energy in the spring. A locking mechanism (81) is additionally carried by the housing for retaining the spring in the compressed position. The locking mechanism is releasable so that the ejector is driven by the spring to the second position to move the pipette tip distally on the second extremity of the housing. <IMAGE>
