Abstract

A device is disclosed for pipetting a liquid, comprising a pipette body enclosing a pipette volume, into which a fluid medium can be placed and in which an actuator that controllably displaces the medium in the pipette volume is provided, as well as a pipette tip, which can be connected to the pipette volume in a fluid-tight manner. The present invention is distinguished by the pipette volume and the pipette tip being connected via a fluid-tight connecting means directly or indirectly to each other in such a manner that the pipette tip is moveable relative to the pipette volume.
