Device for separating micro objects
First Claim
1. A device for the transfer of microobjects from a current substrate to a target substrate, having a displaceable pipette system which is connected to a pressure generating device for aspirating in and flushing out the microobjects, wherein the pipette system is disposed in a micromanipulator and has a microcapillary having a first end which is open to receive and discharge said microobjects, which first end has a clear width of 1 μ
- m to 50 μ
m, a distal end of the microcapillary beingdisposed substantially vertically, and a medial portion of the microcapillary of adjacent the distal end being disposed substantially at a right angle to the distal end, the microcapillary having a fixed shape.

Abstract
The device serves for the transfer of microobjects, in particular of biological objects, from a current substrate (9) to a target substrate. In this case, use is made of a displaceable pipette system which is connected to a pressure generating device for aspirating in and flushing out the biological objects. The pipette system is disposed in a micromanipulator (3) and consists mainly of a substantially vertically disposed microcapillary (1) having a clear width of 1 μm to 50 μm.
