Laboratory & Diagnostics
Pipette tips, reaction vessels, Petri dishes, slides, sample cups and swabs for laboratories.
Laboratory Consumables
Pipette tips, reaction vessels, Petri dishes and cell culture plates for laboratory operations.
Sampling & Diagnostics
Sample cups, swabs, microscope slides and cover slips for diagnostics and research.
Laboratory & Diagnostics brings together the disposables that routine and research laboratories get through every day: pipette tips, reaction vessels and centrifuge tubes, Petri dishes and cell culture plates, sample cups, swabs, microscope slides and cover glasses. The range is split into two categories – laboratory consumables for work at the bench, and sampling & diagnostics for the journey a specimen takes from collection to the microscope stage.
Everything is supplied in the pack sizes labs are used to, from a rack of 25 centrifuge tubes to a bag of 1,000 pipette tips. The minimum order for every item is exactly one pack, so smaller laboratories can restock without tying up shelf space. EINWEGBEDARF has supplied procurement teams across Germany, Austria and Switzerland since 2003 and offers personal advice whenever quantities, variants or alternatives need clarifying.

- GP surgeries, hospitals and care homes: sample cups, stool sample tubes, EDTA tubes and swabs
- Histology and cytology: 76 × 26 mm slides and borosilicate cover glasses
What to look for when buying
Start by deciding which steps of your workflow have to be sterile. Petri dishes, cell culture plates, centrifuge tubes, filter tips and most sampling items are specified as sterile; universal tips, reaction vessels, slides and cover glasses come in bags or boxes without a sterility claim. Filter tips earn their keep wherever contamination is a concern, while universal tips are perfectly adequate for routine dispensing.
Material is the second check: polypropylene for tips, reaction vessels, centrifuge tubes, sample cups and the stool sample tube, PET for the EDTA blood collection tube, polystyrene for Petri dishes and culture plates, soda-lime glass for slides and borosilicate glass for cover glasses. Prices are quoted on request – add the items you need to your inquiry list and send it with your quantities.
