That's far too realistic a lab for stock photos. Stock photo labs have clean benches save for a handful of test tubes and Erlenmeyer flasks. Real labs have equipment on every flat surface and boxes of shit stacked up to the ceiling on the shelves.

Weirdly enough, I recognized a publicity shot of a lab I'd designed being used as a stock photo recently... in an article about how scientists are trying to flee the country. ...Hooray?
