Science Gear To Get A Molecular Biology Laboratory

To begin with, after you begin equipping a molecular biology lab, you need the usual test tubes, beakers, desiccators, pipettes with fillers, and flasks, collectively with all of the vital clamps, stoppers, frames and supports.

The fundamental furnishings will need to have to consist of adequate worktop space, laptop or computer station/s, chemical and biological storage cabinets, possibly a filtered, controlled atmosphere (heating & cooling, and humidity control). In some cases access control, a gray room and clean room conditions may even be vital.

Since this branch of science deals with organic materials from living cell tissues, it stands to reason that temperatures are critical. Most laboratories use refrigerators and freezers, and sometimes surface mounted refrigeration units. Some procedures may require temperatures to be reduced to as low as -86A deg. C.

Centrifuges and microcentrifuges may absorption spectrum  need to stand on refrigerated and unrefrigerated tabletops for different purposes.

The heating devices may include a microwave, Bunsen burners, and/or hot plates.

There are a number of calibrated and measurement devices, apart from the glassware, that will be needed in a laboratory, such as certain plastic ware, micro balances and scales, pH meters, moisture meters and thermometers.

Microscopes or electron microscopes appropriate to the research being done, with each other with camera port and link to personal computer. These are a part of every laboratory.

There is a large number of apparatus and gear generally considered essential for a molecular biology laboratory. Tissue processing for DNA identification is often an important part of molecular biology and many processes require the gear for this, depending on the extent of DNA study and genomics. Here is some of the general apparatus likely to be needed.
