Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between glass and plastic labware?
Glass labware tolerates heat, autoclaving and solvents for reagent prep and volume work, while plastic labware in polypropylene or HDPE is lighter, single-use and reordered far more often.
Which consumables in this section are stocked sterile?
Tubes, pipette tips, microplates, syringe filters and serological pipettes come in sterile and non-sterile packs, while general glassware, racks and small tools ship non-sterile.
Can this section be reordered by standing order?
Yes. Pipette tips, microcentrifuge tubes, microscope slides and syringe filters are set up on standing orders keyed to case quantities and reorder points.
Can hospitals and labs order labware and lab consumables in bulk?
Yes. Labware is stocked in case quantities for hospital, clinical, research and physician office labs, with standing orders on high-volume SKUs such as pipette tips and syringe filters. Contact our procurement team for case pricing.
What labware consumables should a laboratory stock on its formulary?
A working stock list covers sample tubes and racks, pipette tips, reagent bottles and beakers, microscope slides and cover glass, syringe filters and assay microplates. MAP Medical builds packages by facility type - contact our team.
