“Banana-peel plastic wrap features easy opening for aseptic removal and eliminates static cling when wearing latex gloves. You can see the polystyrene pipet through the clear plastic wrap for instant size identification. Plus, space-saving packaging reduces storage requirements, waste, and one material makes it easy to recycle.”

Gosselin™ Petri Dish

Corning® Gosselin™ Petri Dishes by Corning Life Sciences

“The product is genuinely durable even when subjected to high pressure. It is convenient to use, portable and useful for my assays. It really helps when dealing with microorganisms in vitro, especially for lab work and for instructional purposes, e.g., teaching techniques for crop protection.”

Jesryl Paulite, Surigao del Sur State University

Corning® Stripettor™

Corning® Stripettor® Ultra Pipet Controller by Corning Life Sciences

“This pipettor is the best one I have used by far. High quality, reproducible measurements, ease of use and user friendly.
