Back to school and university with Raig

Sept. 9, 2017
Everything you need for your science practices, you can find it in Raig
Back to school and university with Raig
Laboratory ground


The holidays are over and the school and university year begins, it is time to have all the material ready and Raig offers students and teachers a complete catalog of scientific products .

Science is one of the pillars of our education and one of its great virtues is that it can be touched and demonstrated , there is a place or operating room where that is possible, where magic can be turned into science and that place is the laboratory. .

Science is a very broad genre and covers many fields. Thus, we can differentiate types of laboratory depending on the science taught:

-Biology lab

-Medical laboratory

-Physics Laboratory

-Chemistry laboratory

-Geology Laboratory

Each of them requires a different type of material to carry out the experiments . This material can be an integral part of the laboratory or it will have to be carried by the student at the time of the practices.

What material do we associate with each type of laboratory?


-Biology and medicine laboratories:

We differentiate between laboratories where we work at the cellular level and others with larger samples, for example in the environment of botany, zoology, mycology and medicine . If we work with large samples, our user material will be the scissors, the scalpel, the tweezers, the sleeved needles, etc. (dissection material) ... plus more than coddington loupes or binocular loupes for observation.

Working with much smaller samples, we then enter the field of biological microscopes for observation, microtomes for cutting samples, and different volumetric material for preparing reagents and solutions. Test tubes, pipettes, burettes, beakers, etc. .. Analytical balances are also frequently used to accurately weigh the samples to be analyzed and different types of petri dishes for microbiology.

- Chemical and physical laboratories:

In chemistry, the basic instruments are those of volumetry , containers to measure the reagents and also weighing material such as analytical balances .

At Raig we have a very wide catalog of volumetric material, both glass and plastic , which is suitable to withstand abrasive reagents and sterilization or autoclaving processes.

We also have lab coats of different sizes for men and women, as well as protective glasses , an essential product for chemical practices. Another type of material used in chemistry is the material to determine the PH, conductivity, chlorine, dissolved oxygen, etc. , especially in water analysis.

In physics, mainly measurement material is used, related to electric current, density, flow and hydraulics, force, etc. Conductivity meters, dynamometers, weights, springs,

When the laboratory moves outdoors


What happens if we move the laboratory out of four walls? Then we enter field practice field , fundamental in fields like biology, environmental science and geology.

In geology practices we will need a compass, an inclinometer, a level, a geological hammer and a coddington magnifying glass . In botanical practices we will also find magnifying glasses and tweezers , while in environmental sciences we will need portable temperature, humidity, pressure, wind and gas meters .
