  1. Aim: why is laboratory equipment so important? Do Now: list 5 safety rules Homework: find the practical uses for the following equipment: Gel Electrophoresis Chromatography Centrifuge

  2. Laboratory Equipment

  3. Pipette • This is used to add or remove small amounts of fluids.

  4. Beaker • Can be used to measure liquids. • This is not a very accurate tool for measuring. • This can be used to store liquids .

  5. Petri dish • Used for growing bacteria, fungi or any small organisms.

  6. Beaker Tongs • Used to hold beakers after they have been heated up.

  7. Erlenmeyer Flask • This flask is used when you have fluids that need to be stirred. • Also this is very good to use when heating fluids. • Can be used to measure fluids.

  8. Bunsen Burner • Used for heating

  9. Graduated Cylinder • This device is used for accurately measuring fluids.

  10. Test Tubes • These are used to store small amounts of fluids. • This can be used to hold hot liquids.

  11. Test Tube Rack • This is used to hold test tubes so they do not spill.

  12. Test Tube Holder • This is used to hold test tubes after they have been heated.

  13. Meter Stick • Used for measuring materials

  14. Triple Beam Balance • Used to obtain the mass of an object.

  15. Hot Plate • Used to heat of fluids.

  16. Centrifuge • This is used to separate fluids by molecule size. • This tool spins fluids at an extremely fast pace.

  17. Gel Electrophoresis • Uses electrons to separate tiny molecules such as DNA. • Also known as DNA finger printing.

  18. Chromatography • This is used to separate mixtures by molecule size. • Also used to separate pigments.

  19. Microscope • Used to enlarge tiny objects.

  20. Slide and Cover Slip • Used to hold specimens for use in a microscope.

  21. Scalpel • This is used in dissections to cut up different specimens.

  22. TweezersForceps • Used to pick up tiny objects.

  23. Probe • Used for dissections to move structures around.

  24. Dissecting Pins • Used to hold a specimen.

  25. Dissecting Tray • Used to put specimens in when dissecting.

  26. Thermometer • Used to measure temperature

  27. Fermentation Tube • This device is used to measure the amount of gas produced through fermentation.
