Borosilicate BOD Bottle Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India

Product Code : SCL-B-12585

The Borosilicate BOD Bottle is a laboratory glass bottle used for incubating water or wastewater samples during biochemical oxygen demand testing. It is suitable for school chemistry labs, college environmental-science practicals, water-testing laboratories, laboratory technicians, distributors, and institutional procurement buyers.

Product Description

Borosilicate BOD Bottle from School Equipments India is intended for supervised BOD and water-quality testing demonstrations. BOD testing estimates how much dissolved oxygen is consumed by microorganisms while decomposing organic matter in a water sample under controlled incubation conditions.

A typical BOD bottle is a stoppered glass bottle designed to minimise trapped air and external oxygen exchange during incubation. The supplied product name specifies borosilicate glass, but exact glass grade, capacity, stopper type, bottle number marking, neck design, dimensions, calibration status, and certificate availability should be confirmed before publication, quotation, or tender submission.

Key Features

• BOD testing use: supports biochemical oxygen demand analysis for water and wastewater samples.
• Borosilicate glass product name: suitable for laboratory glassware positioning; exact grade must be verified.
• Stoppered bottle format: helps reduce oxygen exchange during controlled incubation.
• Water-quality teaching value: useful for environmental science, pollution testing, and dissolved-oxygen studies.
• Reusable laboratory glassware: can be cleaned, rinsed, dried, and reused after inspection and SOP approval.
• Compatible with DO testing workflows: used with dissolved-oxygen measurement before and after incubation.
• Procurement-safe specification: final capacity, stopper, numbering, and standards must be verified before order.

Technical Specifications

What's Included in the Kit

• 1 × Borosilicate BOD Bottle
• 1 × matching stopper
• Protective cap, individual number marking, certificate, packing list, and datasheet
• DO meter, Winkler reagents, incubator, dilution water, seed material, and sample bottles are not included unless confirmed.

Applications / Uses

• Incubating water or wastewater samples for biochemical oxygen demand testing
• Teaching water pollution, dissolved oxygen, and aerobic microbial activity
• Supporting environmental science and public-health laboratory demonstrations
• Comparing initial and final dissolved oxygen values in controlled practicals
• Holding diluted samples during supervised BOD workflow training
• Supporting tender-based procurement for water-testing and laboratory glassware

How to Use the Borosilicate BOD Bottle

1. Inspect the bottle and stopper for cracks, chips, poor fit, residue, or contamination.
2. Clean and rinse the bottle according to the laboratory BOD method.
3. Prepare the sample, dilution water, and controls as specified by the approved SOP.
4. Fill the bottle carefully to reduce bubbles and avoid trapped air.
5. Insert the stopper slowly so excess liquid is displaced and the bottle remains full.
6. Measure or record the initial dissolved oxygen value as required by the method.
7. Incubate the sealed bottle under the approved temperature, time, and dark conditions.
8. Measure final dissolved oxygen and calculate BOD according to the laboratory procedure.

Safety note: Use only under trained supervision. Treat wastewater, sewage, and environmental samples as potentially contaminated, and follow PPE, disinfection, incubation, and biological-waste disposal SOPs.

Care & Maintenance

• Clean promptly after use because organic residue can affect future BOD results.
• Rinse thoroughly with suitable purified water according to the laboratory method.
• Keep each stopper matched with its bottle to maintain fit and reduce leakage risk.
• Store clean, dry, and protected from impact to prevent rim and stopper damage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Borosilicate BOD Bottle used for?

A Borosilicate BOD Bottle is used to incubate water or wastewater samples during biochemical oxygen demand testing. The test compares dissolved oxygen before and after incubation.

What capacity is used for BOD testing?

Many BOD test workflows use 300 mL bottles, but the final supplied capacity must be confirmed from the School Equipments India quotation or datasheet before publishing.

Why does a BOD bottle need a stopper?

The stopper helps minimise air exchange during incubation. This is important because BOD testing depends on dissolved oxygen change inside the sample bottle.

Is the bottle made from borosilicate glass?

The product name specifies borosilicate, but the exact glass grade should be confirmed from the final datasheet, marking, or certificate.

Does it include BOD testing reagents?

No reagent inclusion is confirmed. DO reagents, incubator, dilution water, seed material, and oxygen-measurement equipment should be listed only if supplied.

Is it suitable for school environmental science labs?

Yes. It is suitable for supervised school and college environmental-science laboratories when teachers control sample selection, incubation, DO measurement, cleaning, and waste disposal.
