A major problem with the consumables in our kit used in this experiment were the amount of plastic disposed. As engineers, sustainability should always be a top priority when conducting an experiment. As a solution to this problem, the plastic tubes used for micro-pipetting should be produced using more durable material and eco-friendly materials. With more durable and eco-friendly materials, these plastic tubes can then be sanitized and reused multiple times before disposal, thus lessening the amounts of plastic waste. Also, with eco-friendly material, the decomposition of these tubes will not contribute to rapid increase of plastic pollution in the environment. | A major problem with the consumables in our kit used in this experiment were the amount of plastic disposed.
