For instance, say you have been asked to measure 3.3 milliliters (0.1 fl oz) of a medication, but your syringe Is marked in hash marks of 0.2 milliliters (0.007 fl oz) increments.

Read a syringe marked in consecutive increments. For instance, your syringe may be marked with a number at every successive mL. In between you'll see a mid-sized line that marks half mL units, like 0.5 milliliters (0.02 fl oz), 1.5 mL, 2.5 mL, and so on. The 4 smaller lines between every half mL and mL line each mark 0.1 mL.

Reading a 5 mL Syringe

Syringe, 1M silicone feed tube, sinker, PVC protection sleeve, aspiration and vent cannulas, set of spares for valve, operating instructions.

This is a 5 mL syringe. Each line measures in 0.2 increments until it reaches a total capacity of 5 mL. Tip: If you hear someone say give “10 cc” of this medication, cc is the same as mL. Therefore, 10 mL equals 10 cc. Reading a 10 mL Syringe General-purpose syringes comprise a barrel, a plunger, and a terminal fitting for needles or other attachments. Two-part syringes have an integral barrel and terminal fitting, with a separate plunger. Three-part syringes have a plunger fitted with a separate rubber piston at the end. Plastic general-purpose syringes are made from polypropylene or polyethylene and are often single-use and disposable. Syringes with glass barrels frequently have metal plungers and terminal fittings, so tend to offer better overall chemical resistance and durability. Therefore, I will be discussing how to read 5 different types of syringe you will encounter as a nurse, such as:

This is a 100 unit insulin syringe. Each line measures in 2 increments until it reaches a total capacity of 100 units. Whether you need equipment and supplies for your laboratory applications, biopharma product support or products ensuring carefully controlled environments at your facility—Avantor can help. A well performing QC laboratory ensures the integrity of a company's production process from raw material validation to finished product verification... General-purpose syringes are used in many laboratories and other workplaces for drawing up and expelling liquids or suspensions. They are designed to fit appropriate needles, tubing, syringe filters, or similar devices, and are constructed of plastic, glass, or a combination of both. They may also have metal components. So, if you need to measure 2.3 milliliters (0.08 fl oz), draw the liquid to the third line above the 2 line. If you need to measure 2.7 milliliters (0.09 fl oz), that will be the second line above the 2.5 mL mark.
