for bacterial cultures
Flask / Stopper• Measures
liquids---Flask• Stops liquids from
spilling out of the flask---Stopper
Funnel• Transfers liquid from
one container to another;
filters material with filter paper
Apron•Used to
protect your clothes from
chemicals
Test Tube Cleaner• Used to clean out
chemicals from the inside of test tubes, flasks, or beakers which normally could not be reached
Optical Lens Wipes• Used to wipe the
objective lenses, the eyepiece,
and the stage to prevent from
scratching these surfaces
Chemical Scooper (Scoopula)
• Is used to scoop dry
chemicals to measure them accurately on
the triple beam balance
Test Tube and Flask Tongs
•Used to hold heated test
tubes or flasks to
prevent from getting burnt
Specimen Dishes• Holds
specimens or various objects
to prevent them from
falling on the floor
Weighing Boats• Used to weigh dry
chemicals on a triple beam
balance
