The present invention includes a pipette stand having a base, a trunk extending from the base, and a holding assembly coupled to the trunk. The holding assembly forms one or more apertures configured to receive at least a portion of a pipette therein, and the one or more apertures define a first width. The pipette stand also includes an insert removably couplable to the holding assembly and configured to modify the first width.

1. A pipette stand comprising: a base;a trunk extending axially from the base;a holding assembly coupled to the trunk, the holding assembly including a petal extending radially outwardly from the trunk to define an outer perimeter and an aperture configured to receive at least a portion of a pipette therein, and wherein the aperture includes a distal end open to the outer perimeter, and wherein the aperture defines a first width;an insert having an open end, and wherein the insert is removably couplable to the aperture so that the open end of the insert aligns with the distal end of the aperture;wherein the insert includes an outer contour, and where the insert defines a groove extending along and open to the outer contour; andwherein the insert includes one of a protrusion or a detent at least partially positioned within the groove. 2. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the insert defines a second width that is less than the first width. 3. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the holding assembly is rotatably coupled to the trunk. 4. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the aperture defines a first depth measured from the distal end to the most radially inward location of the aperture relative to the trunk, wherein the insert defines a second depth measured from the open end of the insert to the most radially inward location of the insert relative to the trunk, and wherein the second depth is less than the first depth. 5. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the aperture is among a first set of apertures, the pipette stand further comprising a second set of apertures, and wherein each aperture of the second set of apertures is axially spaced from each aperture of the first set of apertures. 6. The pipette stand of claim 5, wherein at least one aperture of the first set of apertures is axially aligned with at least one aperture of the second set of apertures. 7. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the base defines one or more notches therein. 8. The pipette stand of claim 7, wherein at least one notch of the one or more notches is axially aligned with the aperture. 9. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the insert defines an inner contour, and wherein the inner contour mirrors the shape of the aperture. 10. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the outer contour mirrors the shape of the aperture. 11. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the groove is sized to receive at least a portion of the holding assembly therein. 12. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the holding assembly is operable in a first configuration, where the insert is positioned within the aperture so the holding assembly is configured to support a pipette of a first size, and a second configuration, where the insert is removed from the aperture so that the holding assembly is configured to support a pipette of a second size different than the first size. 13. The pipette stand of claim 1, wherein the aperture is substantially U-shaped. 14. A pipette stand comprising: a base;a trunk extending from the base; anda holding assembly rotatably coupled to the trunk opposite the base, wherein the holding assembly is substantially hyperboloid in shape and includes: a stem axially aligned with the trunk,a first set of petals extending radially outwardly from the stem to produce a first substantially circular outer perimeter, wherein at least one petal of the first set of petals defines an aperture that is open to the first outer perimeter,a second set of petals extending radially outwardly from the stem axially offset from the first set of petals to produce a second substantially circular outer perimeter, wherein at least one petal of the second set of petals defines an aperture that is open to the second outer perimeter, andwherein at least one aperture of the first set of petals is axially aligned with at least one aperture of the second set of petals. 15. The pipette stand of claim 14, further comprising an insert removably couplable to one of the apertures of the first set of petals and the second set of petals, wherein the insert includes an open end.
