26
Most common glassware
Borosilicate
27
Borosilicate has a high degree of - and have low - content
high degree of thermal resistance and have low alkali content
28
more resistant to chemical corrosion
Borosilicate
29
Borosilicate commercial brands
Pyrex and kimax
30
Alkali resistant and are 6 times stronger than borosilicate
alumino silicate
31
Alumni silicate is strengthened - rather than thermally
Chemically
32
Resistant clouding and scratching better
alumino silicate
33
Alumni silicate popular brand
corex

most of these laboratory vessels are "to contain"meaning they will hold or contain specific volume or specific type of Fluid
pipet
42
it is filled to a particular graduation (It contains that volume)not as accurate
TC pipet
43
It will deliver the specified amount
TD pipet
44
Drainage characteristics
Blowout, self draining
45
measuring or graduated pipet, they are usually designed to contain
Serologic Mohr Bacteriologic Ball, Kolmer, or Kahn Micropipet
46
Transfer - to deliver pipet
volumetric Ostwald-Folin Pasteur -pipets Automatic macropipets
47
Serologic pipet
Graduation up to bottom, blowout
48
Mohr pipet
Self draining, pipette used for between measurements
49
Used for non- critical measurements, mixing solutions, and holding liquids
Beakers
50
Designed to hold a variety of volumes
Flasks ( erlenmeyer, Florence, volumetric)
51
Calibrated to hold one exact volume of liquid
Volumetric flask
52
Holds liquid samples and serve as containers for test reaction
Test tubes
53
For non- critical volume measurements
Graduated cylinder
54
Long tubes of uniform bore with graduation along the length for measuring titration volume
burettes
55
Are calibrated for the volume delivered with no attempt to blow out the small amount left in the tip
TD
56
Used for accurate measurement of non viscous solution, designed to deliver a fixed volume of liquid with a bulb midway between mouth and tip
Volumetric or transfer pipet
57
Graduation marks are down to the tip
Serological
58
Calibrated between two marks
mohr
59
Similar to volumetric pipes except for a narrow bore tubing and bulb near the tip, usually calibrated to blow out and are used to measure viscous solutions
Ostwald Colin pipet
60
Most pipettes are calibrated at - centigrade for accuracy and standardization
20 degrees centigrade
