Bioadhesives are natural polymers that are used as adhesives. These are synthetically produced using organic monomers such as sugars. Bioadhesives materials build a resilient interface between two categories of materials such as soft and hard materials, which display certain characteristics that make them different from synthetic adhesives. Proteins and carbohydrates are the primary raw materials used to make bioadhesives. Gelatin (proteins) and starch (carbohydrates) are used as general purpose adhesives.

Laboratory rack is a type of laboratory consumable that is used to temporarily store or hold sample handling labware such as test tubes, petri dishes, bottles, and slides. In addition, laboratory racks are used for drying labware and other laboratory utensils, and are also called drying racks. Another common type of laboratory rack is a freezer or cryogenic rack that is used to store test tubes or microcentrifuge tubes in freezers.

DNA sequencing helps determine the precise order of nucleotides, particularly of the four bases within a DNA molecule — adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine. DNA sequencing was initiated in the 1970s using the Maxam-Gilbert method and performed in 1975 using the Sanger method. Medical and research laboratories perform most of the DNA sequencing using sequencers that employ variants of the Sanger method.
