In order to speed up procedures, all techniques will be on a semimicro scale. This scale involves volumes of 12 mL of solutions and adding reagents dropwise with eye droppers. Containers will generally be standard 75 mm test tubes which hold about 3 mL. Techniques for working with volumes of this magnitude will be outlined below.
