When one thinks of science and research, a picture usually pops into one's mind. This may be a picture you saw in a an old science fiction movie about a mad professor working in the laboratory. You probably see lots of flasks and beakers with solutions and chemicals bubbling away. Test tubes holding samples of you-don't-want-to-know-what, and bottles and jars with research samples like eye of newt resting, cobwebbed on the shelf. No? That's now what you're thinking? I've worked around scientists at least half my life, and that's still what comes to my mind! This little preamble was to introduce a very popular category to microscopes.com - beakers, test tubes, flasks, and accessories. In addition to the obvious products in this category, we will also have vials, cylinders, dishes, bottles and jars, and other laboratory glassware and plasticware. Some of the new brands being added currently will be Kimble, VWR, Griffin, I-CHEM, Nalgene, EP Scientific, Qorpak, Wheaton, BrandTech, and many, many others. I know all of you can't wait, but please be a little more patient. We should be up and running by September 15!
