“…Therefore it is important to collect calibration data and we present such data on our device. Several technical solutions have been proposed to test the precision of syringe pumps (Nieman et al, 1986). We programmed various fixed amounts of solution, 0.45, 0.61, 0.76, 0.91, 1.06, 1.51, 1.97, 3.03, 3.94 and 4.54 l, corresponding to 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 13, 20, 26 and 30 motor steps (each step corresponding to 0.15 l) and measured the corresponding volume of solution stored in the cup with a 5 ml capillary tube.…”
