Beakers are used for boiling water and measuring approximate amounts of liquid.

Individual drops of liquid can be obtained with a dropper bottle.

A reagent bottle stores corrosive chemicals.

Membrane filters sterilize liquids that are heat labile (sensitive).

Petri plates function as growth chambers for bacteria and fungi when the appropriate media (nutrients) are provided.

A graduated cylinder is used to accurately acquire desired aliquots of liquid.

Safety glasses and safety goggles help protect eyes from contamination.

A Salversan burette can be used to measure a specific amount of liquid media and dispense it to Petri plates.

A specific dilution of a liquid (e.g. a bacterial broth culture) can be obtained by using a dilution bottle.
