Laboratory Consumables: are equipment that only have limited use, as in it can be used until it is 'run out' and then must be disposed of. Some examples of these kinds of materials include pipettes, syringes, beakers, funnels and test tubes. They can also include disposable gloves, face masks and shoe covers.
