38
flat bottom, sloping sides that gradually narrow its diameter so that top opening is bottle-like, plain flat opening
Erlenmeyer flask
39
flat bottom, round sides, long cylindrical neck o marking: total capacity
Florence flask
40
very long neck, pear-shaped
Volumetric flask
41
contain exact volume at specified temperature (for accurate measurement)
Volumetric flask
42
* curve fluid surface
Meniscus
43
To measure and transfer liquid or solutions.
Pipettes
44
Types pf pipettes
Measuring pipette Transfer pipette Pasteur pipette
45
Used in old determination of hemoglobin
Sahli-hellige
46
filled, allowed to drain and remaining tip fluid is blown-out deliver exact amount; not rinsed-out
To blow-out
47
Example of TBO/ To blow-out pipette
Oswald-folin -measure viscous fluid like whole blood -special pipette Serological pipette -long glass tube with uniform diameter - markings extend to the delivery tip - has two frosted band near the mouth piece
48
-refilled or rinse-out after draining by appropriate solvent -hold exact amount of liquid that must be completely transferred by rinsing for accurate measurement.
To contain(TC) / Rinse-out pipette
49
* allow liquid to drain by gravity • pipette is held vertically and the tip is place against the side of accepting vessel
To deliver (TD)
50
Measuring pipettes are divided into
Mohr pipette Serological pipette
51
the graduations on these always end before the tip
Mohr pipette
52
the graduation marks continue to the tip
Serological pipette
53
Advantages of Using Automatic Pipette:
Easy to operate Reduce technical error
54
o most common type with disposable tip, piston-operated device o fixed oradiustable volume
Eppendorf micropipette
55
• delivers cylindrical slender glass rods, for mixing manually solutions o heat-resistant
SMI Micropipettor
56
used with volumetric and standard graduated pipettes (serological of various sizes.
Electric/battery-operated pipette
57
can deliver different volumes
Battery-operated/electric pipette
58
functional from storing to mixing reagents
Test tubes
59
one of the most important apparatus
Test tubes
60
rpm means
Revolutions per minute
61
a small centrifuge used in blood banking and serology to spin serological tubes
Serofuge
62
spins special microtubes at high speed
Microfuge
63
spins capillary tubes at high speeds so that hematocrit can be measured.
Microhematocrit centrifuge
64
used to separate chylomicrons fromserum,fractionate lipoproteins, perform drug binding assays, preparation of tissue for steroid hormone receptor assay.
Ultracentrifuge
65
high speed &sampleskeep cool while being centrifuge (i.e. ultracentrifuge), use inresearch but not required for routine use.
Refrigerated centrifuge
66
container for sterilize items.
Autoclave chamber
67
surrounds the chamber and source ofsteam
Metal jacket
68
securely lock & has a seal to prevent escape ofsteam.
Door or cover
69
separate for temperature and pressure.
Gauges
70
for weighing chemicals and media
Laboratory balance
71
Never open the door unless chamber pressure is:
Zero psi
72
asingle beam with equal arms, standard weights are added manually to the right side to counter balance the object weight.
Double pan (DIRECT COMPARISON)
73
arms are unequal in length, object is placed on the short arm pan and arestoring force mechanicallyapplied tothe other armuntil indicator is balanced.
Single Pan (SUBSTITUTION)
74
Important Parts of the Autoclave:
Autoclave chamber Metal jacket Door / cover Gauges
75
TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED CHAMBERS
1) Above ambient or room temperature a. oven b. water bath (heating bath) c. incubator 2) Cold temperature a. refrigerator b. freezer
