  • Clinical thermometer can never be used for measuring the temperature of any object other than human body.
  • It is used to measure the temperatures in school or other laboratories for scientific purpose as they measure temperatures to a range higher than clinical thermometers.
  • One such thermometer is known as the laboratory thermometer with a scale generally ranging from –10°C to 110°C. It has a long stem with a silver bulb at the end unlike clinical thermometer.
  • The silver colour at the bulb normally points toward the presence of mercury which expands with the rise in temperature thereby raising the reading and contracts on lowering of temperature thereby lowering the reading.
