Science Biology Microscopes

Whether you’re searching for digital or traditional optical microscopes, compound microscopes, corded or cordless, we provide affordable and durable options.  Stock your classroom with these science biology microscopes:

Science Chemistry Glass & Plastic Lab Beakers

Science Chemistry Glass & Plastic Laboratory beakers, constructed of various types of glass, or plastic may be used for measuring, mixing, pouring, or heating liquids, depending on their construction. The wide mouth opening of a beaker provides easy access to add ingredients, mix using a stir bar or stir rod, thermometer, and perform other classroom lab procedures. Graduated markings on the side, when present, offer less accuracy and precision than graduated cylinders and volumetric flasks.

Science Laboratory Balances

How to care for Balances and Science Laboratory Balance Use. Balances are an essential component of any high school science lab. Flinn Scientific carries electronic balances that vary in precision from 1 g to 0.0001 g. Following are tips to properly use, store and maintain balances. Science Laboratory Balances should always be placed on a level and sturdy surface. Recalibrate electronic balances every time they are physically moved from one location to another.  What is an Electronic Balance Used for in a Science Lab? The applications of electronic balances in the high school science lab are diverse and indispensable:  Chemistry: Electronic balances are used for accurately measuring the mass of reagents, chemicals, and compounds. This precision is critical for stoichiometry, titration, and determining reaction yields.  Biology: In biology experiments, electronic balances play a crucial role in weighing samples, such as dissected organisms, to record their mass accurately. This data is fundamental for biological investigations.  Physics: In physics experiments, the accurate measurement of mass is essential for studying the forces and properties of objects. Electronic balances ensure precise data collection.  Environmental Science: For environmental science studies, electronic balances are used to measure the mass of samples such as soil, water, and air pollutants. These measurements are vital for understanding environmental impacts.  Key Features to Consider- When selecting an electronic balance for your high school science lab, it's essential to consider the following key features: Capacity: Determine the maximum weight the balance can measure. Make sure it accommodates the range of substances you'll be working with.  Precision: Electronic balances offer varying levels of precision, usually expressed as the number of decimal places. Choose a balance with the precision appropriate for your experiments.  Taring Function: This feature allows you to set the balance to zero with a container on it, making it easier to weigh substances without the container's mass.  Calibration: Look for a balance with a user-friendly calibration process to ensure accuracy. Regular calibration is crucial for reliable results.  Digital Display: Opt for a balance with a clear and easy-to-read digital display. Some models even feature touchscreen interfaces for convenience.  Portability: Consider the size and portability of the balance to ensure it fits your lab space and can be easily moved if necessary.  Durability: While your budding young scientists may be passionate, they may not always be as careful as they could be. Choosing a balance that will withstand regular use by students is important. 

Science Laboratory Hot Plates

Science Laboratory Hot Plates are used for heating only, while combination lab hotplate stirrers can simultaneously heat and mix. Lab Hotplates and hotplate stirrers are benchtop Science laboratory tools that are used to heat evenly and mix various types of liquids and solutions.

Science Laboratory Magnetic Stirrers

Science Laboratory Magnetic Stirrer units used with a magnetic bar or rod to mix liquid samples for routine applications, available in a wide range of speeds and volume capacities.
