Who can calibrate balances and pipettes or qualify an autoclave?

Balances and pipettes are usually calibrated on site or in a calibration lab, often with ISO/IEC 17025-accredited certificates. Autoclave qualification maps temperature and pressure and uses biological indicators to show the cycle meets its purpose.

What the method covers

Analytical and precision balances, single- and multi-channel pipettes, and steam sterilizers used in laboratories.

Applicability caveats

• An accredited certificate covers only the listed scope — check range and uncertainty.
• Autoclave qualification for medical device sterilization follows different, stricter frameworks.
• Calibration does not adjust the instrument unless requested.
