It is used to transfer and take a sample of microorganisms in a culture or a petri dish.

A

Inoculating Loop

21
Q

Used for transferring and taking solid or dense media.

A

Inoculating Needle

22
Q

Racks

A

Test tube
Slant

23
Q

produced from polyoxymethylene and is designed for simultaneous staining of up to 25 microscope slides for efficient staining process.

A

Staining Racks

24
Q

commonly seen in the laboratory and is used to hold upright multiple test tubes at the same time whilst securing safety.

A

Test tube Racks

25
Q

used to hold the slants at the degree it is required to be placed in to be dried after the media has been inserted into the tube

A

Slant Racks

26
Q

It is used for heating,sterilization of laboratory equipment and combustion for reactions.

A

Bunsen burner

27
Q

This is used for gripping and manipulating small or delicate objects.

A

Forceps

28
Q

This is used when we need to put our samples in a constant and continual temperature for a long time. Its equipment is preferred as a heat source since open flames like bunsen burners fluctuate in temperature and are more prone to accidents.

A

Hot air sterilizer

30
Q

This is used in clinical laboratory settings for separation of liquid and solid components

A

Centrifuge

31
Q

This is used for disinfection and sterilization, wherein, it operates at high temperature and pressure in order to decontaminate instruments and lab ware.

A

Autoclave

32
Q

This is used in weighing different kinds of material needed for media preparation and alike.

A

Weighing balance

33
Q

This is used as a heat source and is commonly used for preparing agar in microbiology.

A
