Both pipettes are tested according to the same DIN or ISO standard. However since handling of the two dispensers can vary, the test conditions are also different. For example the Multipette pro can be completely emptied in one step whereas the M. plus cannot (this is in pipette mode of the MP pro). Therefore the M. pro is tested with the total volume of the fitted Combitip and 1/10 of this volume. Dispensers that cannot be emptied in one step are tested with other volumes.
