SUMMARY A novel method of attaching a fine mesh filter to the end of a disposable plastic pipette is described. Such a pipette filter can be used to exclude specimen uptake during specimen preparation procedures, particularly when processing small or transparent materials. The pipette filter‐tip does not interfere with fluid exchange and is non‐reactive with normal processing fluids.
