Types of Tweezers and Their FunctionsTweezers are a laboratory tool used to clamp small objects or tissues. Before using tweezers for laboratory or medical activities, make sure the tweezers have been through the sterilization process. Starting with decontamination using a 0.5% chlorine solution for approximately 10 minutes. Then proceed with the washing process using soap and a brush, rinse thoroughly and then sterilize by dry heat or chemically. There are various types of laboratory tweezers, so their use can be adjusted according to their function. Some commonly used tweezers are:1. Chirurgis tweezersChirurgis or sirurgis tweezers have tweezers that have a serrated shape that is their trademark. There are chirurgis tweezers with an arrangement of two teeth in one plane. However, there are also those who have 3-4 teeth in two planes. Chirurgis tweezers are the type most often used by doctors for suturing wounds. The function of these tweezers is to clean the remnants of the suture wound, clamp the gauze when pressing the wound, to form a stitch pattern. In addition, chirurgis tweezers can also be used by doctors to pinch thin and soft tissue and mark the skin surface before the incision process begins.2. Splinter tweezersSplinter tweezers is a type of tweezers that has a length of about 12 centimeters. The shape of the tip of the splinter tweezers is also not jagged, but quite pointy and sharp. Just like chirurgis tweezers, this type of tweezers is also used in the medical world, especially in surgical procedures. The main function of these splinter tweezers is to prevent overlapping or adapting the wound edges.3. Anatomical tweezersAnatomical tweezers are a type of tweezers that look similar to chirurgis tweezers because of their almost identical shape. Although both have serrated ends, anatomical tweezers do not have teeth of various sizes as in chirurgis tweezers, because all the teeth are flat. These tweezers are basic minor surgical instruments that are always used by doctors in the operating room and treatment room.4. Agrave tweezersAgrave tweezers are a type of tweezers that are commonly used for wound treatment. The main function of the agrave tweezers is to clamp the ellipse on the wound. The goal is that the wound does not open again so that it can heal faster. From its shape, these agrave tweezers have jagged edges and there are indentations on both sides of the ends. This indentation is where the tip of the ellipse is compressed in wound healing.
