The default Inventory contains two
folders: **Materials** and **Methods**.
These are used to organise respectively samples and materials of any
type and lab protocols.
Samples, materials and protocols are modelled in openBIS as *Objects*.
In the openBIS ELN-LIMS for life sciences, the following Object types
are preconfigured in the database:
Antibodies, Chemicals, Enzymes, Media, Solutions and Buffers, Plasmids, Plants, Oligos,
RNAs, Bacteria, Cell lines, Flies, Yeasts, General protocols, PCR protocols, Western blotting protocols.
These *Objects* are organised in *Collections* in the **Materials** and
**Methods** sections of the Inventory .


The generic openBIS ELN-LIMS only has one predefined *Object* type for
the Inventory:
General Protocol
Additional *Object* types and the corresponding *Collections* must be
created by the *Instance admin*, based on the needs of the lab.
It is possible to add additional folders in the Inventory, for example
for **Equipment** (see **[Create new Inventory
Spaces](https://openbis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user-documentation/general-admin-users/admins-documentation/space-management.html))**.
