Below are some Commonly used Laboratory Instruments along with their Descriptions:

1). Microscopes

Used for magnifying small objects and specimens that are not visible to the naked eye. Types include compound microscopes, electron microscopes, and stereo microscopes.

2). Centrifuge

Separates substances of different densities by spinning samples at high speeds. It is commonly used in medical and biochemical laboratories.

3). Spectrophotometer

Measures the absorbance and transmittance of light in a sample, useful for analyzing chemical compositions.

4). Autoclaves

A device used for sterilizing equipment and media using high-pressure steam, ensuring a germ-free environment.

5). Incubator

Maintains a controlled environment (temperature, humidity, and CO₂ levels) for growing microbiological cultures or cells.

6). pH Meter

Measures the acidity or alkalinity of a liquid sample by determining the hydrogen ion concentration.

7). Analytical Balance

A highly sensitive balance used for measuring small masses with high precision, essential in chemical and pharmaceutical labs.

8). Hot Plate & Magnetic Stirrer

Used for heating solutions and mixing them efficiently using a rotating magnetic field.

9). Bunsen Burner

A gas-powered flame source used for heating, sterilization, and combustion in laboratories.

10). Pipettes & Micropipettes

Used for accurately transferring small volumes of liquid, essential in biological and chemical experiments.

11). Chromatography System

Used for separating and analyzing mixtures of substances, including gas and liquid chromatography

12). Fume Hood

A ventilated enclosure that removes hazardous fumes, vapors, and dust, ensuring safe handling of volatile substances

13). Water Bath

Provides a controlled temperature environment for heating samples gently, often used in microbiology and biochemical applications

14). Electrophoresis Apparatus

Used for separating DNA, RNA, or proteins based on size and charge using an electric field

15). Laminar Flow Hood

Ensures a sterile work area by directing a continuous stream of filtered air, protecting samples from contamination
