Correct me if I am wrong but if you are using a syringe with a needle and pull up the liquid until it is at the exact measurement you want (say 1ml), there will be slightly more liquid drawn up total because of the space in the tip. However, when you depress the plunger fully you would still be left with the liquid in the tip, therefore making the measurement exact (or as near as humanly possible). Am I wrong on this?
I am truly interested since my husband had asked me the same thing about the measurements not being exact with the syringes and this is basically what I told him.
True, syringes are not perfect, and drops are not perfect, but measuring by weight should be perfect.
But I guess I'm not perfect, so I just use drops and syringes, good enough for me, lol.
It's about whatever "you" like best, in the end, anyway, right...
