A boiling tube is a large test tube intended specifically for boiling liquids. A test tube filled with water and upturned into a water-filled beaker is often used to capture gases, e.g. in electrolysis demonstrations. A test tube with a stopper is often used for temporary storage of chemical or biological samples.
These tubes should be used with care when measuring drug or hormone levels because the drug or hormone may diffuse from the serum into the gel, causing a reduction in measured level. The gel in SST II tubes (which appears slightly less opaque) is supposed [weasel words] to have less effect on drug levels in serum. [citation needed]
Test cards typically contain a set of patterns to enable television cameras and receivers to be adjusted to show the picture correctly (see SMPTE color bars).Most modern test cards include a set of calibrated color bars which will produce a characteristic pattern of "dot landings" on a vectorscope, allowing chroma and tint to be precisely adjusted between generations of videotape or network feeds.
Test tube: Folin-Wu tube: Glass slide mycole and cover slips: in microscopy, serology, etc. as the solid backing on which test samples are Petri dish: used for preparation of culture media and the culture of organisms they are in Glass beaker: reagent storage Glass flask: gastric acid, or other fluid titration: Pasteur pipette
On July 25, 1978, the world's first "test tube baby" was born. Louise Brown was the first person conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF) and her birth eventually led to one of her doctors ...
A microplate, also known as a microtiter plate, microwell plate or multiwell, [1] is a flat plate with multiple "wells" used as small test tubes. The microplate has become a standard tool in analytical research and clinical diagnostic testing laboratories.
The sample is placed in a cuvette and the cuvette is placed in a spectrophotometer for testing. The cuvette can be made of any material that is transparent in the range of wavelengths used in the test. The smallest cuvettes can hold 70 microliters, while the largest can hold 2.5 milliliters or more.
