No, any pipette can't be used with universal pipette tips. Since pipettes and pipette tips are meant to work together, using the incorrect pair can produce inconsistent or erroneous results. The following are some justifications for not using universal pipette tips with any type of pipette:

• The universal pipette tips might not fit your pipette precisely. Different pipette tips come in different sizes, and if you use the wrong size, it might leak or not dispense the right amount of liquid.

• The material used to make universal pipette tips might differ from that of your pipette. Certain materials used to make pipettes are incompatible with universal pipette tips. This could cause the tips to break or adhere to the pipette, damaging the pipette as well as the tips.

• The accuracy of universal pipette tips may be inferior to that of tips made especially for your pipette. This is because, unlike pipette tips made specifically for a particular model of pipette, universal pipette tips are made to fit a wide range of pipettes and may not be as precise.

Using pipette tips made especially for your pipette is generally the best option. This will guarantee that the pipetting experiments you conduct yield the most precise and reliable results.
