Microinjection accuracy starts with mechanical repeatability. At low injection volumes, dosing accuracy often comes from the same four issues:
• Dead volume
• Air bubbles
• Plunger stick-slip
• Inconsistent injection rates
In this article, we break down what each one does to your delivered dose and how to standardize your workflow for more consistent outcomes.

🔬 Are your surgical instruments affecting your research outcomes?
In laboratory and research environments, surgical instruments are more than tools. They directly influence precision, reproducibility, and data integrity. Yet one critical factor is often overlooked: how those instruments are handled.
Improper handling can lead to loss of sterility, reduced precision, faster wear, and inconsistent experimental results, especially in microsurgery and animal research applications.
Our latest blog explores the real impact of improper instrument handling in the lab and outlines best practices to help researchers protect their tools, their data, and their investment.

At World Precision Instruments (WPI), we are always inspired to see researchers leveraging our technologies to advance impactful science. Understanding the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and developing reliable methods to evaluate brain pe*******on of compounds are essential not only for identifying therapeutic efficacy but also for assessing neurotoxicity and drug safety.

This peer-reviewed publication provides an excellent example of how Trans-Epithelial Electrical Resistance (TEER) measurements can play a pivotal role in studying brain permeability and neurotoxicity. These findings underscore the importance of New Approach Methodologies (NAMs) in drug discovery and highlight the value of TEER in elucidating barrier function and supporting safer, more effective therapeutics.

If you’re attending the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) 2025 Annual Meeting (November 15–19), visit WPI at Booth #1520 to learn how our EVOMTM TEER technology can enhance your neuroscience research. Our team will be on-site to discuss how integrating TEER and other technologies can elevate your studies and accelerate breakthroughs in brain research. Let’s connect and explore how WPI can help drive your next discovery!
