Abstract
This tip outlines a method to transform polyethylene transfer pipettes into sample containers using common materials. Key steps include removing a section of the dropper shaft, cutting a hole into the tapered end of the bulb, folding the bulb over on itself, and securing it in place once the sample is collected. In certain situations, the polyethylene transfer pipette sampling containers can offer some advantages over traditional sampling containers.
