A wiping cap closure device used for removing the non-calibrated residue
fluid attached to the outside surface of a pipette tip during the fluid
transfer from a container. The wiping cap is constructed using a conical
shaped resilient wiper section extending to a conical tip. The conical
shaped wiper section is configured to include at least one helical formed
slot extending from said conical tip forming at least one wiping finger.
The wiping finger is resiliently held against the outside surface of the
pipette tip inserted therethrough during the fluid transfer. The wiping
finger provides squeegee like means to remove all of the non-calibrated
residue fluid inadvertently attached to the outside surface of the tip as
the pipette tip is withdrawn from the container leaving the
non-calibrated residue fluid within the container for further evaluations
or tests.
