Scoopula is a brand name of a spatula-like scoop utensil used primarily in experimental laboratories to transfer solids: to a weighing paper for weighing, to a cover slip to measure melting point, or a graduated cylinder, or to a watch glass from a flask or beaker through scraping. "Scoopula" is a registered trademark owned by Thermo Fisher Scientific. They are very often made of metal.[http://wolfweb.unr.edu/~howard/equipment/microscoop.html Lab Glassware and Equipment; microspatula and scoopula] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070706231442/http://wolfweb.unr.edu/~howard/equipment/microscoop.html |date=2007-07-06 }}{{better source|date=September 2015}}
