labware
Flasks and pipettes
Labware is equipment used in scientific laboratories—glassware, plasticware, and other containers and instruments for conducting experiments.
Beakers, flasks, test tubes, pipettes, and petri dishes all count as labware.
The term parallels formations like hardware and software, treating laboratory equipment as a category: The grant covered reagents but not labware.
