Laboratory glassware

Laboratory glassware refers to a number of tools used by chemists and biologists in performing scientific experiments.

They include:

• test tubes
• Erlenmeyer flasks
• Florence flasks
• beakers
• Petri dishes
• graduated cylinders
• pipettes
• cuvettes
• burettes
• gas syringes
• conical measures

Often customized pieces of glassware are needed, and for this reason most large laboratories and research facilities keep a glassblower on staff.
