Rubber bulbs are a common chemistry lab accoutrement. They come in a variety of sizes. The primary application of the rubber bulb is as a vacuum source for filling pipettes, Pasteur pipettes, etc. with sample, standard, reagent, or any liquid component of an analytical system without exposing the analyst to the potential hazards of filling the pipette by creating this vacuum by use of their mouth. This technique was the standard means of filling pipettes for centuries and is presently referred to as "mouth pipetting".
