Biology Lab

Binocular Microscope (Product Code: SCL1302/01) is a two-eyepiece compound microscope used to magnify cells, tissues and micro-organisms in school, college and teaching-laboratory biology practicals. Students view with both eyes through 10x and 15x eyepieces, while objectives of 4x, 10x, 45x and 100x take them from a whole-slide overview to fine cellular detail. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to institutions choosing a compound microscope in India with replaceable components and an easy-to-carry build.

Specifications

What Is the Binocular Microscope Used For?

In biology practicals the binocular microscope is used to examine prepared slides of plant and animal tissue, temporary mounts of onion peel and cheek cells, pond-water organisms and stained bacterial smears. Because both eyes share the view, students can work through a full practical with less eye strain than on a single-eyepiece instrument, which is why many schools choose it when they add biology lab equipment in India for senior classes.

Begin on the 4x objective to find and centre the specimen, then move up through 10x and 45x, refocusing at each step, and keep the 100x objective for the finest detail. Adjust the distance between the eyepieces to suit each user before focusing. On most compound microscopes the 100x lens is used with a drop of immersion oil, so check its marking and keep oil and lens tissue close by. Cover the microscope after use and store it in a dry cupboard.

Blood Pressure Monitor (Product Code: SCL1409/03) is a compact, fully automatic digital monitor that measures blood pressure and pulse rate on the oscillometric principle, used to demonstrate circulation and vital signs in biology and health-education classes. One-touch operation, controlled inflation and irregular-heartbeat detection let students record real readings and relate them to the work of the heart, making it a practical part of a health education kit for schools in India. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Blood Pressure Monitor Used For?

In a physiology practical the student being measured rests quietly for a few minutes, the cuff is wrapped around the upper arm at heart level, and a single press starts the cycle. The monitor inflates, deflates and shows systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and pulse, so the class can compare resting values with readings taken after light exercise or on standing up, and discuss how the circulatory system responds to demand.

Because it is mainly designed for general household use, treat it as a teaching and self-monitoring device rather than clinical equipment, and refer any reading flagged as outside the standard range or as an irregular heartbeat to a doctor instead of interpreting it in class. Used alongside a stethoscope, it lets older students compare the automatic oscillometric method with manual listening, a useful exercise for any biology lab instruments supplier to support with a combined order.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, supplies this monitor within its biology and health-education range to schools, colleges and training institutes in India and international markets. It is offered as a teaching and household-use device, not as clinical equipment. Company details are on the ScienceLab profile page.

Stethescope (Product Code: SCL1411/04) is an acoustic stethoscope used for auscultation — listening to the internal sounds of the human or animal body — in biology, physiology and health-education lessons. A small disc-shaped resonator placed against the chest carries sound through two tubes to the earpieces, so students can hear heart and lung sounds, the intestines and blood flow in arteries and veins. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Stethoscope Used For?

In class, students tilt the earpieces slightly forward so they follow the ear canals, then press the resonator gently but firmly onto the skin. Typical exercises are counting the heart rate before and after exercise, recognising the two-part sound of the heart valves closing, comparing breath sounds at different points on the chest and back, and listening over the abdomen for intestinal sounds. As biology teaching aids go, few make the working body as immediate for students.

With a sphygmomanometer cuff, the resonator is placed over the artery on the inside of the elbow to hear the sounds that mark systolic and diastolic pressure as the cuff deflates, the classic manual method of taking blood pressure. When one instrument is shared by a group, wipe the earpieces and resonator with an alcohol swab between users and store the tubing without sharp kinks.

Supplier

This stethoscope is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, and equips schools, colleges, training institutes and dealers in India and international markets with biology and physiology teaching material.

Centrifuge (Table Top) (Product Code: SCL1413/05) is a bench-mounted digital centrifuge used to spin sample tubes so that cells, precipitates and suspended particles separate from a liquid in biology and chemistry teaching laboratories. Its compact microprocessor configuration is programmable from 500 to 4400 rpm in 100 rpm steps, with a lid lock, a 0–99 minute timer and a choice of angle head. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to institutions buying a laboratory centrifuge in India.

Specifications

What Is the Table Top Centrifuge Used For?

In school and college practicals the centrifuge settles cells out of a suspension, separates the liquid and solid parts of blood or culture samples for demonstration, clears soil and pond-water extracts before a colour test, and collects precipitates in simple biochemistry exercises. The angle head decides the tube format: the 24 x 1.5 ml head takes micro tubes for small-volume molecular work, while the 8 x 15 ml, 6 x 25 ml and 6 x 50 ml heads hold larger tubes for class sets.

Load tubes in opposite, balanced pairs with equal volumes, close the lid before starting and wait for the rotor to stop completely before opening. Because speed is set in 100 rpm steps and the display shows RCF alongside rpm, a method can be repeated exactly from one group of students to the next, and the last-used settings come back up automatically.

What to Specify When Ordering

• Configuration: the compact microprocessor model (500–4400 rpm, 0–99 minute timer) or the high-speed digital model (up to 20000 rpm without load, 0–59 minute timer).

Chromatographic Jar (Product Code: SCL11005/06) is a transparent, rectangular polycarbonate tank used to hold the solvent and the paper or plate while a chromatogram develops in school and college practicals. Teachers use it to separate leaf pigments, ink dyes and amino acids, and its clear walls let students watch the bands form without lifting the strip out. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as the centrepiece of a paper chromatography kit for schools.

Key Details

What Is the Chromatographic Jar Used For?

A shallow layer of solvent is poured into the jar, the jar is covered so the air inside becomes saturated with vapour, and a spotted strip or plate is lowered in with its origin line above the liquid. As the solvent climbs, the components of the sample separate into bands that the class can follow through the transparent walls. The rectangular shape leaves room for a wide sheet or several strips side by side, so a leaf extract can be run next to reference spots in one go.

For sharper results, line one wall with filter paper wetted with the solvent before the run, keep the jar still during development and mark the solvent front as soon as the chromatogram comes out. Schools running paper chromatography practicals often keep one jar per group so each team develops its own sample.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this chromatographic jar. The company makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies it factory-direct to schools, colleges, laboratories, dealers and importers in India and international markets, so quotations and repeat orders come straight from the manufacturer rather than through a trader. Read more on the company profile.

Related Biology Lab Equipment

Consumables and accessories that go into the same chromatography run:

• Chromatography Paper No. 1 — strips cut to size for pigment and ink separations inside the jar.
• Chromatography Plates, TLC — for thin-layer runs when faster separations are wanted.
• Whatman's Filter Paper No 1 — for lining the jar wall to saturate the air with solvent vapour.
• Chromatography Kit — a ready set for groups that need the full activity in one order.

More glassware, reagents and apparatus are listed in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Chromatographic Jar made of?
The Chromatographic Jar is made of transparent polycarbonate, so students can follow the separation without lifting the chromatogram out. As a plastic tank it is also less likely to shatter than a glass jar if it is knocked over on a crowded bench.

Which solvents can be used in the Chromatographic Jar?
Water-based and many alcohol-based mobile phases used in school practicals are commonly run in a polycarbonate Chromatographic Jar. Some organic solvents, such as chloroform and acetone, can attack polycarbonate, so check your solvent system with us through the contact page first.

Does the Chromatographic Jar come with a lid?
A lid is not stated in the product details of the Chromatographic Jar. Please confirm the lid and internal dimensions with ScienceLab before ordering; in the meantime a flat glass plate laid over the mouth also keeps the solvent vapour in during a run.

What size of paper or plate fits the Chromatographic Jar?
The dimensions of the Chromatographic Jar are not given in its product data. Send the size of your strips or plates through the contact page and ScienceLab will confirm the fit before you place the order.

Desiccator (Soil Analysis) (Product Code: SCL1417/07) is a covered soda-glass vessel, 100 mm in diameter, used to keep oven-dried soil samples, dishes and residues away from moist air while they cool before weighing in soil-analysis, ecology and agriculture practicals. A porcelain disc holds the sample above the desiccant, and the 3 mm glass is rated from -25 to 120 °C. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Soil Analysis Desiccator Used For?

Its classic job is soil moisture determination: a soil sample is weighed, dried in an oven, cooled inside the desiccator so it cannot take up water vapour, and weighed again, with the loss in mass giving the moisture content. The desiccant sits in the lower compartment while the dish or crucible rests on the porcelain disc above it. Between lessons the same vessel keeps dried plant material, filter papers and hygroscopic salts dry, which makes it a useful piece in an ecology science kit for schools in India.

Let hot containers cool in air until they are within the 120 °C limit before placing them inside, because soda glass is more sensitive to sudden temperature change than borosilicate. Slide the cover sideways to open it rather than lifting it straight up, and keep the rim clean so that it seals evenly.

OEM Manufacturer

This desiccator is an own-make product of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and works as an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) at its licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, universities, testing laboratories, dealers and importers buy it factory-direct instead of through a trader, and questions about replacement discs or repeat batches go straight to the people who make it. The company profile has more background.

• Soil Analysis Kit — extends the practical to other soil tests.
• Vacuum Desiccator — an alternative when drying under reduced pressure is needed.

Browse the Biology Lab category for further glassware and field-study items.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is the Desiccator (Soil Analysis)?
The Desiccator (Soil Analysis) has a diameter of 100 mm and is made of 3 mm thick soda glass. That size suits the small dishes, crucibles and soil samples used in class practicals rather than large batches of laboratory glassware.

Is a desiccant included with the Desiccator (Soil Analysis)?
The Desiccator (Soil Analysis) is listed with its cover and a porcelain disc; a desiccant is not stated. Silica gel can be ordered separately, and you can confirm the exact contents with us through the contact page.

Can hot samples go straight into the Desiccator (Soil Analysis)?
Only once they are within its -25 to 120 °C operating range. Let crucibles cool briefly in air before placing them in the Desiccator (Soil Analysis), and avoid sudden temperature changes, as soda glass can crack under thermal shock. It is not meant for direct heating.

Who manufactures the Desiccator (Soil Analysis)?
The Desiccator (Soil Analysis), code SCL1417/07, is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) as the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Buyers receive quotations and repeat supplies directly from the manufacturer.

How should the Desiccator (Soil Analysis) be looked after?
Wash the Desiccator (Soil Analysis) with water and mild detergent, dry it fully, and replace or regenerate the desiccant once it is saturated. Keeping the rim clean helps the cover seat evenly so that moist air stays out.

What should a quotation request for the Desiccator (Soil Analysis) include?
A quotation request for the Desiccator (Soil Analysis) should state the quantity, whether desiccant, dishes or a balance are also needed, and the delivery address. Orders are accepted from institutions and dealers in India and international markets.

Beaker (Product Code: SCL1427/012) is a 100 ml clear borosilicate glass vessel used to mix, warm and hold small volumes of liquid in school and college biology practicals. It has a pouring spout and indelible graduations and resists both heat and chemicals, which makes it one of the most handled items on any biology bench. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as part of its borosilicate lab glassware range.

Specifications

What Is the 100 ml Borosilicate Beaker Used For?

In biology practicals the 100 ml size is handy for preparing small quantities of stain or reagent, soaking potato strips in salt or sugar solutions for osmosis work, making a hot-water bath for test tubes during Benedict’s or starch tests, and collecting pond water for microscopy. Its heat resistance allows gentle warming over a spirit lamp on a wire gauze, and its chemical resistance means acids, alkalis and stains do not etch the glass.

The graduations are a guide for approximate volumes; use a measuring cylinder or pipette when an exact volume matters. Heat gradually, never heat it empty, and let it cool before washing. Class sets of these beakers are a basic part of school biology lab equipment, as every group needs several for a single practical.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, and the company is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this beaker: it is produced at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, rather than bought in from a trader.

Bell Jar (Plant Physiology) (Product Code: SCL1455/020) is a bell-shaped glass cover, 20 x 10 cm, used to enclose a small plant, specimen or piece of apparatus so that the air around it can be controlled and observed in plant physiology practicals. Made of thin, transparent, heat-resistant glass with care for optical clarity, it can also contain a vacuum when set on a suitable plate. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Plant Physiology Bell Jar Used For?

To show transpiration, a well-watered potted plant is placed under the jar with the pot and soil wrapped in polythene; within a few hours droplets form on the inside of the glass, and cobalt chloride paper placed inside turns from blue to pink. For photosynthesis, a destarched plant kept under the jar beside a dish of alkali that absorbs carbon dioxide is compared with a control plant, and the leaves are then tested with iodine. Germinating seeds under the jar with a dish of lime water show that respiration releases carbon dioxide.

Stand the jar on a smooth glass plate and seal the rim with a thin film of petroleum jelly whenever the enclosed air must be isolated. The clear glass lets students watch changes without lifting the cover, which is why the bell jar remains standard botany lab equipment in India for these three classic experiments.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this bell jar and produces it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because it is made by the company rather than bought in from a trader, schools, colleges, dealers and importers receive it factory-direct, and repeat orders or replacements after breakage are handled by the manufacturer itself — just ask. More about the company is on its profile page.

Cavity Slides (Single Cavity) (Product Code: SCL1557/021) are rectangular microscope slides in clear borosilicate glass with one concave well, used to hold a drop of culture or a small living organism for observation without crushing it under a coverslip. Biology and microbiology students use them for hanging-drop preparations and live-specimen study, and the heat- and chemical-resistant glass stands up to repeated cleaning. They are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Key Details

What Are Cavity Slides Used For?

In the hanging-drop method, a drop of broth culture or pond water is placed on a coverslip, the rim of the cavity is ringed with a little petroleum jelly, and the slide is lowered over the coverslip and turned the right way up. The drop then hangs inside the well, where students can watch bacterial motility or the swimming of Paramecium, Euglena and other protozoa without the sample drying out. The well is also handy for germinating pollen grains in a drop of sugar solution.

Find the edge of the drop with the low-power objective before moving to higher magnification. Because the borosilicate glass is chemical resistant, the slides can be cleaned with alcohol and used again, and they sit comfortably alongside stains and coverslips as part of the microbiology lab equipment in India’s school and college labs.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited of Ambala, Haryana, which supplies these cavity slides to schools, colleges, laboratories and dealers in India and international markets, often in the same order as coverslips, stains and microscopes.

Plain Slides (Product Code: SCL1462/022) are flat, clear glass microscope slides measuring 75 x 25 mm and 1.2 mm thick, used to carry temporary mounts, smears and stained sections for viewing under a compound microscope. Their ground edges make them safer for students to handle and clean, and the chemical-resistant glass takes routine stains. They are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to schools building a microscope slides set for practicals.

Specifications

What Are Plain Microscope Slides Used For?

Plain slides carry onion-peel and cheek-cell preparations, leaf epidermal peels that show stomata, thin hand-cut sections of stem and root, and blood or bacterial smears. The chemical-resistant glass is unaffected by stains such as safranin, methylene blue and iodine, or by the alcohol used for cleaning and fixing, which makes them the basic consumable in any temporary slides biology kit.

Wipe each slide with alcohol before making a smear so the film spreads evenly, hold slides by their ground edges, and label one end with a marker so that preparations are not mixed up. The 75 x 25 mm format sits securely under the stage clips of common school and college microscopes.

Coverslips (Product Code: SCL1365/023) are thin 18 x 18 mm glass squares placed over a specimen on a microscope slide to keep solid material pressed flat and to spread liquid samples into a flat layer of even thickness. Students and technicians use them on every wet mount, stained preparation and hanging drop, so they are among the first items in a microscopy starter kit for schools. They are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Are Coverslips Used For?

Once a drop of water, glycerine or stain has been placed on the specimen, the coverslip is touched to the slide at an angle and lowered slowly with a needle, so that air is pushed out rather than trapped as bubbles. Excess liquid at the edges is drawn off with a strip of blotting paper. The even layer this creates lets the objective focus across the whole field, and the glass also keeps stains and water off the lens.

In the hanging-drop method the coverslip carries the drop over the well of a cavity slide. Because coverslips are very thin, handle them by the edges or with forceps, keep them in their container until needed, and clean them with alcohol before use for the clearest view.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known by its trading name ScienceLab, supplies these coverslips from Ambala, Haryana, as part of the slides, stains and microscopy consumables it provides to schools, colleges, laboratories and dealers in India and international markets. See the company profile for more.

Related Biology Lab Equipment

Items used with coverslips when preparing and staining mounts:

• Plain Slides — the base slide for most temporary mounts.
• Cavity Slides (Single Cavity) — for hanging-drop preparations under a coverslip.
• Glycerine — a mounting medium that slows drying under the coverslip.
• Acetocarmine (Nucleic Acid) — stains chromosomes in root-tip squash preparations.
• Brush — transfers thin sections onto the slide before covering.

See the Biology Lab category for more slides, stains and specimens.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size are the Coverslips?
The Coverslips are 18 x 18 mm squares of glass. That size covers a typical onion-peel, cheek-cell or root-tip preparation on a standard microscope slide while leaving room at the ends of the slide for a label.

What thickness are the Coverslips?
The thickness of the Coverslips is not specified in their product details. If your microscope objectives call for a particular coverslip thickness, confirm it with ScienceLab through the contact page before placing the order.

How do you avoid air bubbles under the Coverslips?
Touch one edge of the Coverslips to the liquid first and lower each one slowly with a needle or forceps. The liquid then spreads outward across the specimen and pushes the air out ahead of it, leaving a clear, bubble-free mount.

Can the Coverslips be reused?
The Coverslips can be cleaned carefully with alcohol and reused, but most laboratories treat them as consumables because the thin glass breaks easily. Put broken pieces in a glass waste container rather than an ordinary bin.

How many Coverslips come in a pack?
The pack quantity of the Coverslips is not listed on this page. Please ask when requesting a quotation, and mention how many slides your classes prepare so that ScienceLab can suggest a sensible order quantity.

Who supplies the Coverslips?

Measuring Cylinder (Product Code: SCL1699/030) is a 25 ml graduated cylinder in clear borosilicate glass, used to measure small volumes of reagents, stains and water more accurately than a beaker allows in biology and chemistry practicals. Its heat- and chemical-resistant glass and small capacity make it a routine choice when schools order a measuring cylinder for school labs in India. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the 25 ml Measuring Cylinder Used For?

The 25 ml size suits small measured volumes: reagents for food tests, water for seed-soaking experiments, sugar or salt solutions for osmosis work and dilutions of stains. Stand the cylinder on a level bench, bring your eye level with the liquid and read the bottom of the meniscus against the graduation. For volumes of only a few millilitres a pipette gives better precision.

Although the glass is heat resistant, a measuring cylinder should not be heated over a flame, because heating can affect the accuracy of its volume markings; warm washing water is fine. Chemical resistance means that acids, alkalis and stains will not etch the glass, so the scale stays readable through years of shared use between biology and chemistry rooms.

OEM Manufacturer

This measuring cylinder is produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, which is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and makes its glassware at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers are supplied factory-direct rather than through a trader, and orders for matching glassware or replacements go straight to the manufacturer. The company profile gives more background.

Items used with the measuring cylinder when preparing solutions:

• Beaker — receives the measured liquid for mixing or warming.
• Pipette — for volumes too small to read accurately on the cylinder.
• Distilled Water — for making up and diluting solutions.
• Wash Bottle LDPE with Narrow Mouth — tops up to the mark drop by drop.
• Measuring Cylinder, Polypropylene — a plastic alternative where breakage is a concern.

Find more glassware in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What capacity is the Measuring Cylinder?
The Measuring Cylinder holds up to 25 ml and is graduated along its length, which makes it suited to the small reagent and stain volumes used in school practicals rather than to bulk solution preparation.

How do you read the Measuring Cylinder accurately?
Place the Measuring Cylinder on a level surface, bring your eye level with the liquid and read the bottom of the curved meniscus against the nearest graduation. Reading from above or below the line gives a parallax error.

Can the Measuring Cylinder be heated?
Avoid heating the Measuring Cylinder directly. Its borosilicate glass is heat resistant, but measuring vessels are not meant for heating because it can affect their markings; warm liquids in a beaker or flask and measure them once cooled.

Why choose the glass Measuring Cylinder over a plastic one?
The glass Measuring Cylinder is chemical resistant, easy to see through and does not stain, which suits reagent and dye work. A polypropylene cylinder is the better choice where breakage is the bigger concern, such as with younger classes.

Ganog's Potometer (Product Code: SCL2409/033) is a borosilicate glass apparatus of the Ganong type used to measure how quickly a leafy plant shoot takes up water, giving students a practical estimate of the rate of transpiration in plant physiology classes. It is fabricated from imported glass tubing for a durable structure, and it anchors any transpiration experiment kit in India’s schools and colleges. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Key Details

What Is the Ganong’s Potometer Used For?

A freshly cut leafy shoot is fitted into the apparatus so that the joint is airtight, and the apparatus is filled with water. A small air bubble is introduced into the capillary, and its movement over a measured distance in a set time shows how fast the shoot is drawing up water. Because almost all of the water taken up is lost from the leaves, the reading serves as a measure of the transpiration rate.

Cut the shoot under water to stop air entering the xylem, seal the joints with petroleum jelly and let the shoot settle before timing. Students can then compare rates in still and moving air, in light and shade, or at different temperatures, turning a textbook idea into measured data with a single piece of plant biology lab equipment.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this potometer: the apparatus is fabricated from imported glass tubing at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers therefore buy it straight from the people who make it, and questions about replacement glass parts or repeat sets are answered by the manufacturer directly. See the company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Ganog's Potometer measure transpiration directly?
The Ganog's Potometer measures the rate at which a leafy shoot takes up water. Since nearly all of that water is lost through the leaves, the uptake rate is used as an estimate of the transpiration rate rather than a direct measurement of it.

What is the Ganog's Potometer made of?
The Ganog's Potometer is made of borosilicate glass and is fabricated from imported glass tubing that gives it a durable structure. Glass also lets students see the air bubble clearly as it moves along the capillary during a reading.

Is a stopper or plant shoot supplied with the Ganog's Potometer?
Plant material is not supplied with the Ganog's Potometer, and accessories are not listed in its product details. Please confirm the set contents with ScienceLab through the contact page before ordering.

How can reliable readings be obtained with the Ganog's Potometer?
Cut the stem under water, make every joint of the Ganog's Potometer airtight and wait a few minutes after setting up before timing the bubble. Repeat each reading at least three times under the same conditions and take the average.

Who manufactures the Ganog's Potometer?
The Ganog's Potometer (SCL2409/033) is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, which fabricates it from imported glass tubing at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies it factory-direct.

It is used to make the movement of water across a membrane visible to a whole class. The funnel is filled with a concentrated sugar solution, the membrane is secured over its mouth, and the funnel is placed mouth-down in a reservoir of water with the indicator tube held upright. Water moves through the membrane into the more concentrated solution and pushes the column up the tube; marking the level at intervals turns the demonstration into a simple set of readings. The dropping pipette is used to adjust the starting level precisely.

Tie the membrane tightly and check for leaks before starting, clamp the tube vertically and add a little food colour to the sugar solution so the column is easy to see from the back of the room. As an osmosis experiment kit for school classes, the set suits the secondary years in which osmosis is first taught.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included with the Osmotic Pressure Apparatus?
The Osmotic Pressure Apparatus consists of a glass thistle funnel with indicator tube and a semipermeable membrane, supplied complete with a dropping pipette. Confirm through the contact page whether a reservoir vessel is included; a beaker can serve instead.

Which solution goes inside the Osmotic Pressure Apparatus funnel?
A concentrated sugar solution is the usual choice inside the Osmotic Pressure Apparatus for school demonstrations, with plain water in the reservoir, so water moves through the membrane and raises the column in the indicator tube.

How quickly does the level rise?
The rise in the Osmotic Pressure Apparatus depends on solution concentration, temperature and the membrane. Setting it up at the start of a lesson and reading the level at regular intervals usually gives students a clear result.

Root Pressure Apparatus (Product Code: SCL226/035) is a borosilicate glass demonstration set used to show root pressure — the push that drives water from the roots into the cut stem of a well-watered plant — in school and college botany practicals. It lets students see this part of water transport directly rather than only reading about it. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as one of its biology teaching aids.

Key Details

What Is the Root Pressure Apparatus Used For?

It is used to prove that roots can push water upward without help from the leaves. A soft-stemmed potted plant is watered well, and the stem is cut close to soil level. A glass tube is joined to the cut stump with rubber tubing, filled with a little water and clamped upright, and the starting level is marked. Over the following hours the water level rises as the roots push sap into the tube.

Make the joint airtight, keep the soil moist throughout and start the demonstration early in the day so the rise can be checked later the same day. Many teachers run it alongside a potometer so that pull from the leaves and push from the roots can be compared, and schools equipping a botany lab can order it directly from the manufacturer together with the rest of their plant physiology apparatus.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM that makes this root pressure set at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because the glasswork comes from the manufacturer rather than a trader, schools, colleges, dealers and importers receive quotations straight from the source, and can ask us about replacement glass parts or repeat orders. Read more on the company profile.

Items used to set up and compare the root pressure demonstration:

• Rubber Tubing — joins the glass tube to the cut stem.
• Retort Stand — clamps the tube vertically while the level rises.
• Kit for Demonstrating Root Pressure — an alternative set for the same practical.
• Osmotic Pressure Apparatus — explains the osmosis behind root pressure.
• Ganog's Potometer — measures the leaf-driven side of water movement for comparison.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Root Pressure Apparatus made of?
The Root Pressure Apparatus is made of borosilicate glass, a heat- and chemical-resistant laboratory glass that stays clear, so students can follow the water column in the tube easily as it rises during the demonstration.

What exactly is supplied with the Root Pressure Apparatus?
The product data for the Root Pressure Apparatus states the material only. Please confirm the set contents through the contact page before ordering, so you know which accessories, such as rubber tubing or a stand, to add.

Which plant works best with the Root Pressure Apparatus?
A healthy, well-watered potted plant with a soft, herbaceous stem gives the clearest result with the Root Pressure Apparatus, because the fresh cut seals well and the roots push sap readily into the tube.

Why might the water level not rise?
If the level in the Root Pressure Apparatus does not rise, the usual causes are an air leak at the joint, dry soil or a woody stem. Reseal the connection, water the plant and try again with a fresh cut.

How should the Root Pressure Apparatus be cleaned?
Rinse the glass parts of the Root Pressure Apparatus with clean water after each demonstration, remove any plant sap before it dries, and let the pieces dry fully before storage to keep the glass clear.

Who manufactures the Root Pressure Apparatus?
The Root Pressure Apparatus is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Quotations and repeat orders come directly from the manufacturer.

Can the Root Pressure Apparatus be ordered with other plant physiology apparatus?

Hand Lens (Product Code: SCL2329/036) is a handheld convex-lens magnifier used to produce an enlarged image of small specimens in school and college biology labs. Students reach for it first when examining leaf venation, flower parts or insect mouthparts, and its metallic body suits everyday handling in class. This hand lens magnifier for school labs in India and abroad is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Hand Lens Used For?

In botany practicals the lens is used to examine the parts of a flower (sepals, petals, stamens and carpels), the arrangement of seeds in a fruit, or the spore-bearing structures on the underside of a fern frond. Zoology classes use it to study insect legs, wings and antennae, while ecology field trips rely on it to identify mosses, lichens and small invertebrates on the spot. Alongside other plant biology lab equipment, it helps students decide which features are worth preparing as a slide for the microscope.

For a sharp image, hold the lens close to your eye and bring the specimen towards it until the detail comes into focus, rather than holding the lens at arm's length. Good side lighting makes surface texture much easier to see. Never look at the sun through the lens, and do not leave it lying in strong sunlight, because a convex lens concentrates light and can scorch paper or skin.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this hand lens and makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because the lens comes straight from the factory that produces it rather than through a trader, schools, colleges, dealers and importers deal directly with the maker for class sets. For repeat orders or matching sets in later years, ask us and the enquiry is handled by the manufacturer itself. More about the company is on our company profile.

Related Laboratory Equipment

These items are commonly used together with a hand lens during specimen study:

• Plain Slides — for mounting material that looks promising under the lens so it can be studied at higher power.
• Dissection Set — to open flowers, fruits or small animals before examining the exposed parts.
• Quadrat — marks out the sampling area in field ecology, where the lens helps identify each plant.
• Microfiber Lens Cloth — wipes fingerprints and dust off the lens without scratching it.

See more items for botany and zoology practicals in our Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What magnification does the ScienceLab hand lens give?
The magnification of the Hand Lens (SCL2329/036) is not stated in our current listing, so we do not quote a figure here. Ask through our contact page and we will confirm the magnification of the lenses being supplied before you place an order.

What is the hand lens made of?
The Hand Lens has a metallic body holding a convex lens, which is the element that produces the magnified image. A metal body is a practical choice for class sets that are passed from student to student during botany and zoology practicals.

When should students use a hand lens instead of a microscope?
Students should use the hand lens for whole, unprepared specimens such as flowers, leaves, seeds and insects, and for outdoor fieldwork. Cells and tissues need a microscope and prepared slides, because they are far too small for a hand lens to show clearly.

How should a hand lens be cleaned and stored?
Clean the hand lens with a soft lens cloth, never with paper towels or abrasive cleaners, and store it in a drawer or pouch away from other metal tools. This keeps the convex lens surface free of scratches that would blur the magnified image.

Is the hand lens safe for younger students?
Yes, the hand lens is safe for younger students with normal supervision. Teach them never to look at the sun through it and never to focus sunlight onto paper or skin, because a convex lens concentrates light and can scorch.

Who manufactures the Hand Lens SCL2329/036?
The Hand Lens is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India. Class sets and repeat supplies are quoted directly by the manufacturer, with no trading intermediary between you and the maker.

Can you supply class sets or export quantities of the hand lens?
Yes, ScienceLab quotes the hand lens for single class sets as well as bulk quantities for schools, colleges, distributors and importers in India and international markets. Send the code SCL2329/036 and the quantity you need through our contact page.

Test Tubes (With Rim) (Product Code: SCL239/038) are clear borosilicate glass tubes used to hold, mix and heat small volumes of liquid in school and college biology labs. Measuring 15 x 125 mm with a rim around the mouth, they are heat and chemical resistant, so students can warm them over a flame and use them with food-test reagents. These tubes belong to the borosilicate laboratory glassware made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Test Tube with Rim Used For?

In the biology lab these tubes carry out the classic tests for food components: the iodine test for starch, the biuret test for protein and the Benedict solution test for reducing sugars, which needs the tube to be heated. They are also used to follow the action of salivary amylase on starch at different temperatures, to compare the pH of samples with indicator, and to hold germinating seeds or small cultures for observation. The clear glass lets students see colour changes and precipitates from every side.

When heating, fill the tube no more than one-third full, grip it near the top with a test tube holder, keep it moving at a slant in the flame and point the mouth away from everyone. The rim gives the holder a firmer edge to sit below and helps liquid pour cleanly. Allow hot tubes to cool in a rack rather than plunging them into cold water, a simple habit that keeps school biology lab equipment in service for longer.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) behind these rimmed test tubes. The company produces its laboratory glassware at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and sells factory-direct to schools, colleges, dealers and importers instead of reselling another maker's stock. When a lab needs to replace breakages from an earlier order, ask us and the manufacturer itself arranges the repeat supply. Read more on our company profile.

Browse the full Biology Lab range for reagents, stains and glassware.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size are the Test Tubes (With Rim)?
The Test Tubes (With Rim) measure 15 x 125 mm, written in the usual diameter-by-length form. This size suits small-volume food tests and enzyme practicals where each student group runs several tubes side by side in a rack.

Can these test tubes be heated directly in a flame?
Yes, these borosilicate test tubes are heat resistant and can be warmed directly in a flame. Heat gradually, keep the tube moving, never heat an empty tube strongly, and avoid sudden cooling, which can crack any glass.

Why choose a test tube with a rim?
A test tube with a rim has a strengthened mouth and pours more neatly than a plain edge. Rimless tubes are usually chosen only where a stopper or cap must sit flush, so rimmed tubes suit most general heating and reagent work.

How many test tubes come in a pack?
Pack quantity for these test tubes is not given in our current listing. Tell us the number of tubes you need on the contact page and we will quote packing that suits a class set, a lab restock or a distributor order.

How should the test tubes be cleaned?
Rinse the test tubes soon after use, scrub them with a test tube brush and detergent, rinse with tap water and then distilled water, and dry them upside down in a rack so that no residue affects the next colour test.

Who manufactures the Test Tubes (With Rim) SCL239/038?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures the Test Tubes (With Rim) as the OEM at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India. Buyers receive their quotation and supply straight from the manufacturer rather than through a trading intermediary.

Do you handle bulk and export orders for these test tubes?

Watch Glass (Product Code: SCL241/039) is a shallow, curved disc of clear borosilicate glass used to hold, stain, weigh or evaporate small quantities of material in school and college laboratories. Biology students rely on it when staining plant sections, and its 3-inch diameter, heat resistance and chemical resistance suit both stains and gentle warming. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer of botany lab equipment in India, at its own factory in Ambala.

Specifications

What Is the Watch Glass Used For?

The most familiar biology use of a watch glass is staining thin transverse sections of stems, roots and leaves. Freshly cut sections are floated in water in one watch glass, moved to a second containing a stain such as safranine, rinsed in a third, and then lifted onto a slide in a drop of glycerine. Working along a row of watch glasses keeps each step separate and is the usual routine for temporary slides in biology practicals.

Chemistry and general science classes use the same glass to evaporate a few drops of solution and watch crystals form, to hold a small amount of powder on a balance pan, or to rest over the mouth of a small beaker to keep dust out. Because the glass is clear, a sheet of white paper underneath shows colour changes and residues well. Like any borosilicate laboratory glassware in India, it is best handled by the edges and set on a flat surface, since the curved base can slide on a wet bench.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597), which trades as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this watch glass and makes it at its own licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India (Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414). Schools, colleges, laboratories and dealers buy it straight from the maker rather than through a trader. For repeat orders or matching glassware for a new lab, simply ask us. More about the company is on the company profile.

Related Laboratory Equipment

Useful companions for section staining and small-scale work:

• Safranine (Plant Tissue) — the stain most often poured into a watch glass for plant sections.
• Glycerine — mounting medium for stained sections once they leave the watch glass.
• Plain Slides — receive the stained section for viewing under the microscope.
• Beaker — a small beaker can be covered with the watch glass during warming or storage.
• Digital Analytical Balance — for weighing small samples placed on the watch glass.

More glassware and stains are listed under Biology Lab.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the diameter of the Watch Glass?
The Watch Glass (SCL241/039) measures 3 inches across, enough to hold a few stained sections, a small pinch of powder or a few drops of solution for evaporation. If your practical needs a different diameter, ask us through the contact page before ordering.

Can the Watch Glass be heated?
Yes. The Watch Glass is made of heat-resistant borosilicate glass, so it tolerates gentle warming such as over a water bath. Let it cool on its own and avoid setting it down hot on a cold, wet bench, because sudden temperature changes can still crack glass.

Will the Watch Glass fit over my beaker?
The Watch Glass will cover any beaker or dish whose mouth is narrower than its 3-inch diameter. Measure the rim of the vessel you want to cover before relying on the watch glass as a lid during warming or overnight storage.

How do I remove stain marks from the Watch Glass?
Rinse the Watch Glass straight after use, because dried stain is harder to lift. Wash it with laboratory detergent, rinse with distilled water and dry it on a clean cloth; the chemical-resistant borosilicate glass stands up well to this routine washing.

How many watch glasses does a class need?
Section staining with the Watch Glass usually takes three per student or group, one each for water, stain and rinse, so many schools order in multiples of three. ScienceLab can quote any quantity, from a single bench set to a full class.

Who manufactures the Watch Glass?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) is the OEM manufacturer of the Watch Glass (SCL241/039). It is made at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, laboratories and dealers.

Do you export the Watch Glass?
Yes. ScienceLab supplies the Watch Glass to institutions, distributors and importers in India and international markets. Send the product code SCL241/039, the quantity and the delivery destination, and the quotation will come directly from the manufacturer.

Lactometer (Test of Milk) (Product Code: SCL248/040) is a glass floating instrument used to check the specific gravity of milk, and so reveal added water, in school, college and dairy-training laboratories. Home-science and food-adulteration lessons use its 0–40 scale, divided into 1.0 degree steps with an accuracy tolerance of ±0.5 and calibrated at 84°F. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer of biology lab equipment in India, at its own factory in Ambala.

Specifications

What Is the Lactometer Used For?

Mix the milk sample gently so that the cream is evenly spread, pour it into the cylinder without making froth, and lower the lactometer in slowly until it floats freely without touching the wall. Once it settles, read the scale at the level of the milk surface. Pure milk gives a reading within its normal band, while added water makes the lactometer sink deeper and show a lower figure. Students can compare fresh milk with samples diluted in known proportions to see the trend for themselves, which makes the instrument a practical biology teaching aid in India for lessons on food adulteration.

Because the scale is calibrated at 84°F, milk that is much colder or warmer will give readings that need correcting. Check the sample temperature with a thermometer first, then either bring the milk close to 84°F or apply the correction your syllabus or dairy method specifies. Rinse the lactometer and cylinder with water straight after use so that milk solids do not dry on the stem and blur the scale.

OEM Manufacturer

The Lactometer (Test of Milk) is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab and is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this instrument. Production takes place at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, so dairy-training centres, schools and dealers deal directly with the maker instead of a middleman. Questions about the scale, repeat orders and replacement pieces go to the same team; just ask us. Background on the company is on our company profile.

Related Laboratory Equipment

Items that help you run the milk test correctly:

• Thermometer Alcohol — checks that the milk is near the 84°F calibration temperature.
• Thermometer (Digital) — a quicker way to read sample temperature for a whole class.
• Beaker — for mixing samples and preparing diluted milk for comparison.
• Measuring Cylinder — measures water and milk accurately when making known dilutions.
• Brush — cleans the cylinder once the milk has been rinsed out.

Explore other apparatus in our Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Lactometer (Test of Milk) measure?
The Lactometer (Test of Milk) indicates the specific gravity of milk as a reading on its 0–40 scale. Because added water lowers the density of milk, a reading below the normal band for that type of milk suggests the sample has been diluted.

How accurate is the Lactometer (Test of Milk)?
The Lactometer (Test of Milk) has a 0–40 scale divided into 1.0 degree steps with an accuracy tolerance of ±0.5. That resolution suits classroom demonstrations and routine screening of milk samples, though formal dairy testing may call for further laboratory methods.

Why does the 84°F calibration matter?
The Lactometer (Test of Milk) is calibrated at 84°F, so its readings are directly valid only when the milk is at that temperature. Colder or warmer milk has a different density, and its reading needs the temperature correction given in your syllabus or dairy method.

Is a cylinder supplied with the Lactometer (Test of Milk)?
The Lactometer (Test of Milk) is described as a glass body made up of the lactometer and a cylinder. Please confirm the exact contents on your quotation through our contact page so that each bench receives the complete set it needs.

Can a lactometer alone prove that milk is adulterated?
No. The Lactometer (Test of Milk) is a quick screening test for dilution with water. Some adulterants can hide a low reading, so any formal finding of adulteration needs further analysis in a food testing laboratory.

Is a calibration certificate available for the Lactometer (Test of Milk)?
Calibration-certificate availability for the Lactometer (Test of Milk) should be discussed with us before you order. Tell us what documentation your institution or dairy needs, and we will confirm what can be provided with the batch supplied.

Who manufactures the Lactometer (Test of Milk)?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) is the OEM manufacturer of the Lactometer (Test of Milk), code SCL248/040. It is made at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and sold factory-direct to schools, dairies and distributors in India and international markets.

Glass Pipettes Graduated (Product Code: SCL249/041) are 5 ml measuring pipettes of clear borosilicate glass used to draw and deliver measured volumes of reagents in biology and chemistry practicals. Graduated along the stem, they let students dispense any part-volume up to 5 ml, and the heat- and chemical-resistant glass withstands reagents and repeated washing. They are made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer of chemistry lab glassware in India, at its own factory in Ambala.

Specifications

What Are the Graduated Pipettes Used For?

Graduated pipettes are the tool of choice whenever a practical asks for a set volume of liquid: adding a fixed amount of Benedict’s or biuret reagent to each test tube, making a dilution series of starch or sugar solution, or dispensing equal volumes of enzyme into tubes kept at different temperatures. Using the same volume in every tube is what makes the results of enzyme activity practicals comparable, and a 5 ml pipette covers the small volumes these experiments usually call for.

Always draw liquid with a pipette filler, never by mouth. Hold the pipette vertically, read the bottom of the meniscus at eye level, and release the liquid slowly against the inside wall of the receiving vessel. Rinse the pipette with a little of the solution first if it was last used for something else, and flush it with water straight after reagents such as Benedict’s so that nothing dries inside the narrow tip — a simple habit that keeps this biology lab equipment reading true for years.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of these graduated pipettes and produces them at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges and research laboratories order factory-direct, so questions about capacity, marking and quantities are answered by the people who make the glassware. Distributors and importers can ask us for a single quotation covering mixed glassware consignments. Read our company profile for background.

Find more glassware in the Biology Lab section.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the capacity of the Glass Pipettes Graduated?
Each of the Glass Pipettes Graduated holds 5 ml, graduated along the stem so that smaller part-volumes can be drawn and delivered. For fractions of a millilitre or for larger volumes, the smaller and larger graduated pipettes listed above are separate items.

What is the graduation interval?
The graduation interval of the Glass Pipettes Graduated is not stated in our current product details. Ask us on the contact page and we will confirm the marking of the 5 ml pipettes being quoted before you place an order.

Can students pipette by mouth?
No. Students should never draw liquid into the Glass Pipettes Graduated by mouth, because this risks swallowing reagents or microbes. Use a bulb or pump-type pipette filler every time, and hold the pipette vertically when reading the meniscus.

Can the Glass Pipettes Graduated be dried in an oven?
The borosilicate glass of the Glass Pipettes Graduated is heat resistant, but measuring glassware is best air-dried or dried at moderate temperatures. Repeated strong heating can affect volume accuracy over time, so avoid putting the pipettes in a very hot oven.

Is a calibration certificate available?
Calibration-certificate availability for the Glass Pipettes Graduated should be raised with us at enquiry stage. Tell us the documentation your laboratory needs and we will confirm what can accompany the 5 ml pipettes supplied in your batch.

Brush (Product Code: SCL282/046) is a plastic-bodied cleaning brush used to scrub glassware and apparatus clean after practicals in school, college and training laboratories. Lab assistants keep it by the sink because food tests, stains and culture work leave films that a rinse alone will not shift. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as part of its range as a lab consumables supplier in India.

Key Details

What Is the Lab Cleaning Brush Used For?

After a session, empty the apparatus, rinse out loose material, and then work warm water and laboratory detergent over the inside surfaces with the brush. Pay attention to the base and shoulders of vessels, where precipitates from Benedict’s tests or dried stain collect. Finish with a tap-water rinse and a final rinse in distilled water, then leave items upside down to drain.

Good cleaning habits are an everyday part of lab equipment maintenance in India's school laboratories and prevent carry-over that can spoil the next group’s results. Use gentle pressure on thin glassware and never force the brush into a neck that is too narrow for it. It also helps to keep one brush for chemical residues and another for biological material, labelled so they are not mixed up.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, an Ambala, Haryana company that supplies this brush together with glassware, apparatus and consumables for educational laboratories. Ordering cleaning supplies with the rest of a lab list means one quotation and one delivery for the whole practical set-up. See the company profile for more.

China Dish (Product Code: SCL287/048) is a round, white porcelain evaporating dish used to drive water off a solution so that the dissolved solid remains or crystallises, in school, college and technical labs. Its 3 inch diameter and pouring spout suit student-scale work, and crystals show up clearly against the chemical-resistant white porcelain. This evaporating dish for lab use in India and abroad is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the China Dish Used For?

A common first practical is recovering salt from a salt solution: the solution is filtered, poured into the dish and heated gently until most of the water has gone, leaving white crystals. In crystallisation activities for school classes, a warm saturated solution of copper sulphate is concentrated in the dish and then left to cool so that blue crystals grow. Biology students use the same dish to concentrate plant extracts or to dry small samples before weighing.

Support the dish on a tripod with a wire gauze and heat it steadily rather than fiercely; when only a little liquid remains, lower the flame to stop the solid spitting. The spout lets you pour off the remaining liquid or decant a solution without dribbling down the outside. Lift a hot dish with tongs and let it cool on a heat-proof mat, not on a cold wet bench.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this china dish and produces it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. The company is a registered MSME manufacturer (Udyam UDYAM-HR-01-0003714) and ships export orders under Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A issued by the DGFT.

Cork (Product Code: SCL299/049) is a size no. 0 plain rubber stopper used to close small tubes and narrow-mouthed vessels in school and college laboratories. It tapers from a 13 mm top diameter to a 9 mm bottom diameter, and although many labs call it a cork, the rubber grips glass more firmly than natural cork does. This rubber stopper for lab use in India is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Rubber Cork Used For?

A small stopper like this closes a tube while its contents are shaken, for example when mixing oil, water and Sudan III for the emulsion test for fats, or when keeping a sample from evaporating or picking up dust between lessons. It is also used to seal small tubes in fermentation and respiration demonstrations, and to store small quantities of solutions or specimens in narrow vials. It is one of the basic items when planning a biology lab setup for a school.

Choose the stopper by the inside diameter of the vessel's mouth: with a 9 mm base and 13 mm top, it suits openings whose inner diameter falls between those two figures, ideally so that around a third to half of the stopper sits inside the neck. Twist it in gently rather than pushing hard. Where a glass tube or thermometer must pass through, a hole can be made with a cork borer; wet the glass with water or glycerine and protect your hand with a cloth when inserting it.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, supplies this rubber stopper as part of its range of laboratory accessories for schools, colleges and institutions. Buyers can combine stoppers with the tubes, flasks and other items they need on one quotation, which keeps purchasing for a whole lab simple. Our company profile has more information.

Related Laboratory Equipment

Items commonly ordered with small rubber stoppers:

• Test Tubes (With Rim) — measure their mouth against the 9 to 13 mm taper to check the fit.
• Cork Drills — bore a hole when a tube or thermometer must pass through.
• Rubber Cork — see this listing when you need other stopper sizes.
• Cork Stoppers — a natural-cork alternative for bottles and jars.

More accessories are listed under Biology Lab.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which openings does the size no. 0 Cork fit?
The size no. 0 Cork fits vessels whose inside mouth diameter lies between 9 mm and 13 mm, the two ends of its taper. Measure your tubes or vials before ordering, or send us the dimensions and we will advise on the fit.

Is this cork made of natural cork or rubber?
This Cork is made of rubber, not natural cork bark. In many laboratories the word cork is used for rubber stoppers, and rubber grips glass firmly and seals well when a tube is shaken or stored.

Does the rubber cork have a hole?
No, this rubber cork is a plain pattern stopper without a hole. You can bore it yourself with a cork borer when a glass tube or thermometer must pass through, or ask us on the contact page about other options.

Can the cork be used with organic solvents?
Chemical resistance is not stated for this cork, and many rubbers swell or soften in organic solvents. Ask us before using the rubber cork with solvents such as acetone or ether; it is routinely used with water-based solutions.

How many corks are in a pack?
Pack quantity for the size no. 0 cork is not listed, so tell us how many stoppers you need for your class or lab and we will quote accordingly, together with any tubes you are ordering at the same time.

Whatman's Filter Paper No 1 (Product Code: SCL303/051) is a rectangular cellulose filter paper used for general-purpose qualitative filtration in student, college and industrial laboratories. Its smooth surface and close texture retain medium-fine precipitates at a relatively slow filtration speed, which suits less critical routine analysis. As a lab consumables supplier in India, Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, supplies it alongside funnels, flasks and other filtration items.

Specifications

What Is the No 1 Filter Paper Used For?

Cut or fold a piece of the sheet into a cone that sits just below the rim of your funnel, wet it with a little distilled water so it clings to the glass, and pour the mixture down a glass rod so that it never rises above the paper edge. In biology practicals this is how students clear a leaf extract after grinding, separate soil particles from a soil-water suspension before testing the filtrate, or remove debris from plant or food extracts before chemical tests. Applications outside the classroom range from the filtration of beverages to the purification of electroplating baths.

Because the texture is close and the filtration relatively slow, the paper holds back fairly fine precipitates, which is why it works for routine qualitative separations. Allow time for the liquid to pass through and avoid poking the paper to hurry it. Strips of filter paper are also used in simple school chromatography demonstrations, although dedicated chromatography paper gives more consistent results.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, supplies this filter paper to schools, colleges, industrial laboratories and distributors as part of its range of laboratory consumables. Ordering the paper together with the funnels, flasks and grinding sets for the same practical lets a lab receive one consolidated quotation. See our company profile for more.

• Funnel Holder — keeps the funnel steady above the receiving vessel.
• Conical Filter Flask — collects the filtrate.
• Pestle And Mortar — grinds leaves or tissue into an extract that is then filtered.
• Chromatography Paper No. 1 — the dedicated choice for pigment separation.

Find more consumables in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Whatman's Filter Paper No 1 for qualitative or quantitative work?
Whatman's Filter Paper No 1 is for qualitative work. It is described as a general qualitative filter for less critical routine analysis, so it is not intended for ash-sensitive gravimetric determinations that need a quantitative grade.

How fine a precipitate does this filter paper hold back?
This filter paper retains medium-fine precipitates. Its smooth surface and close texture trap fairly small particles, which makes it suitable for routine separations in student practicals and for everyday checks in industrial laboratories.

Why is filtration through No 1 filter paper slow?
Filtration through this No 1 filter paper is relatively slow because the same close texture that traps medium-fine particles also restricts the flow. Plan enough time for each filtration and avoid poking the paper, which can tear it.

What sheet size and pack count will I receive?
The filter paper is supplied in rectangular sheets; sheet size, pack count and packaging are not stated in our listing and are confirmed on your quotation. Please state your requirement on our contact page.

How should filter paper be stored?
Store the filter paper flat in its closed pack, in a dry place away from chemical fumes and dust. This keeps the cellulose sheets clean and stops them absorbing moisture before they are used.

Meter Scale (Product Code: SCL308/054) is a wooden measuring scale used to measure lengths and demonstrate measurement in classrooms and school laboratories. Its clear lacquer finish and durable design make it both a teaching tool at the board and an effective hand tool on the lab bench, one of the simplest biology teaching aids for Indian schools. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Key Details

What Is the Meter Scale Used For?

Biology classes use a meter scale to record the height of seedlings through a growth experiment, to lay out and check the sides of a quadrat or a line transect on the school field, and to measure leaf length, stem length or student height and arm span in studies of variation. Teachers also use it at the board to draw straight lines and demonstrate measurement, which is why it appears on almost every school laboratory setup list. In college practicals it lets students read longer lengths quickly.

To avoid parallax error, look straight down at the mark rather than from an angle, and place the scale on its edge so the graduations touch the object being measured. If the end of the scale has become worn, start the measurement from a clear graduation instead of the very end and subtract. Store the scale flat or hanging, away from damp and direct heat, so the wood does not warp; the lacquer surface can simply be wiped with a dry cloth.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) that makes this meter scale at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, dealers and importers order it factory-direct, and replacement scales for later sessions are handled by the manufacturer itself, so just ask us. For institutional and tender buyers who need vendor registration details, the company's GSTIN is 06AAECJ8618A1ZT and its LEI is 3358004HRD1JIVXKYX49. Read more on our company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What length and graduations does the Meter Scale have?
The length and graduation style of this Meter Scale are not stated in our current listing, so we do not quote them here. Please confirm the length and marking style you need through our contact page before ordering, and we will confirm what is supplied.

What is the meter scale made of?
The Meter Scale is made of wood and finished with clear lacquer. The lacquer seals the wooden surface, helping it resist moisture and grime and making the scale easy to wipe clean after classroom or field use.

How can students avoid reading errors with a meter scale?
To avoid reading errors with a meter scale, keep the eye directly above the mark to prevent parallax and hold the graduated edge in contact with the object. If the end is worn, measure from a clear graduation and subtract.

Can a calibration certificate be provided with the meter scale?
A calibration certificate is not listed for this meter scale. If your institution needs calibration documentation, please discuss it with us through the contact page before ordering, and we will confirm what can be provided.

Parchment Paper (Semi Permeable) (Product Code: SCL310/055) is a semi-permeable membrane paper used for osmosis testing in school and college biology practicals. Supplied as a book of 100 leaves, it lets water pass while holding back larger dissolved molecules such as sugar, so a sheet tied over a thistle funnel makes osmosis visible. A key consumable for any osmosis experiment kit in a school lab, it is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Key Details

What Is the Semi-Permeable Parchment Paper Used For?

The classic set-up uses a thistle funnel: a piece of parchment is tied tightly over the wide mouth, the funnel is filled with concentrated sugar solution, and it is inverted into a beaker of water. Over the lesson, the liquid level in the stem rises as water moves through the membrane into the sugar solution. Marking the starting level and recording the rise at intervals turns the demonstration into a measured practical, and swapping the solutions shows that water always moves towards the more concentrated side.

Moisten the sheet in water for a short time before use so it becomes pliable and does not tear when tied. Stretch it evenly, tie it with thread in two or three turns and check for leaks before starting. As part of the cell biology equipment in a school lab, the same paper helps students connect the demonstration to what happens at cell membranes in root hairs, red blood cells and plant tissue.

Supplier

This membrane paper is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the Ambala, Haryana company that trades as ScienceLab and provides consumables for biology, chemistry and physics teaching across India and international markets. Teachers can add the funnels, beakers and sugar needed for the same practical to one enquiry and receive a single quotation. Visit the company profile for details.

Related Laboratory Equipment

Items used with parchment paper in osmosis practicals:

• Osmotic Pressure Apparatus — a ready apparatus for demonstrating osmotic pressure with a membrane.
• Sucrose — for making the concentrated sugar solution placed behind the membrane.
• Beaker — holds the water into which the funnel is inverted.
• Visualising Osmosis & Diffusion Investigation — a complementary activity to reinforce the concept.

More osmosis and plant physiology items are in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many leaves are in a book of Parchment Paper (Semi Permeable)?
Each book of Parchment Paper (Semi Permeable) contains 100 leaves. That is enough for many osmosis demonstrations or for a class working in small groups, since each set-up needs only one piece tied over the funnel mouth.

What size are the parchment paper leaves?
The leaf size of this parchment paper is not stated in our current listing. If you need the sheets to cover a particular funnel or tube, ask us through the contact page and we will confirm the dimensions before you order.

Can kitchen baking paper replace semi-permeable parchment paper?
Kitchen baking paper is not a reliable replacement for this semi-permeable parchment paper. Baking papers are often coated and are not intended to act as an osmosis membrane, so the rise in the funnel stem may be slow or absent.

Can a sheet of parchment paper be reused?
For dependable results, use a fresh piece of parchment paper for each osmosis experiment. A used sheet may be stretched, torn at the tie line or carry sugar residue, and any of these can make the result misleading.

Which solution gives the clearest result with the parchment paper?
A concentrated sucrose solution behind the parchment paper, with plain water outside, usually gives a clearly visible rise in the funnel stem within a single lesson. Mark the starting level so students can measure the change.

Who supplies the Parchment Paper (Semi Permeable)?
Parchment Paper (Semi Permeable), code SCL310/055, is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India. The company provides biology consumables to schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets.

How should the parchment paper book be stored?
Keep the parchment paper book flat, dry and closed, away from humidity and heat, so the leaves do not cockle or stick together. Take out only the sheets needed for the day's practical.

Pestle And Mortar (Product Code: SCL311/056) is a white porcelain grinding set used to crush leaves, seeds, tissue and crystals into extracts or powders in biology and chemistry labs. The 4 inch mortar is glazed outside and rough inside, so samples break down quickly against the unglazed base while the outer surface wipes clean, and the porcelain is chemical resistant. A routine item of botany lab equipment in India, it is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Pestle and Mortar Used For?

A widely taught biology use is extracting leaf pigments: fresh spinach or other green leaves are torn into the mortar with a little acetone and a pinch of clean sand, then ground until the liquid turns deep green. The extract is filtered and spotted onto a strip for paper chromatography in school labs, where chlorophylls and carotenoids separate into bands. The same set is used to crush potato or liver for enzyme experiments, to macerate root tips before staining, and to powder crystals or seeds for chemical tests.

Grind with a circular, pressing motion rather than pounding, which can chip porcelain. Work in small batches so material stays in contact with the rough base. When using acetone or other volatile solvents, grind in a well-ventilated area away from flames, and keep separate sets for chemicals and for food or biological samples where cross-contamination matters.

OEM Manufacturer

This pestle and mortar is produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the company behind the ScienceLab name, as the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Laboratories, schools, dealers and importers therefore buy from the maker itself, not from a stockist reselling someone else's porcelain. If a pestle or mortar is broken later, ask us about a replacement and the request goes straight to the manufacturer. See our company profile.

Related Laboratory Equipment

Items that go with the mortar in a pigment extraction and chromatography practical:

• Acetone (Extra Pure) — the solvent used to draw pigments out of ground leaves.
• Whatman's Filter Paper No 1 — filters the ground extract before chromatography.
• Chromatographic Jar — holds the solvent in which the pigment strip is developed.
• Porcelain Mortar with Crusher — an alternative porcelain grinding set.
• Pestle & Mortor, Unglazed — an unglazed alternative listed in our chemistry range.

See more apparatus in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is the Pestle And Mortar?
The Pestle And Mortar has a 4 inch diameter mortar, a practical size for grinding a handful of leaves, a few seeds or a small quantity of crystals in a single student practical without the sample spilling over the rim.

Is the pestle included with the mortar?
Yes, the product is listed as a pestle and mortar set, so the grinding pestle comes with the 4 inch porcelain mortar. If a class needs extra pestles, ask us on the contact page whether they can be quoted.

Why is the inside of the mortar rough?
The mortar's rough inner surface creates friction, so leaves, tissue and crystals are sheared and ground rather than simply pushed around. The glazed outer surface is there for easy handling and quick cleaning after each practical.

Can the pestle and mortar be used with acetone and other reagents?
Yes, the porcelain pestle and mortar is chemical resistant, so it can be used with acetone and the other reagents common in extraction practicals. Grind volatile solvents in a well-ventilated area and away from any flame.

How do I remove green stains from the rough interior?
To clean a stained mortar, grind a little clean sand with water or a few drops of alcohol, then wash with detergent and rinse. Stains in the rough surface may fade rather than disappear completely, which does not affect grinding.

Who manufactures the Pestle And Mortar SCL311/056?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures the Pestle And Mortar as the OEM at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India. Class sets and repeat orders are quoted directly by the manufacturer, without a trading intermediary.

Petri Dish (Product Code: SCL315/057) is a 3 inch diameter borosilicate glass culture dish used to grow, hold and observe cultures, seedlings and small specimens in biology and microbiology labs. Its crystal clear glass is heat and chemical resistant, so the dish can be sterilised, used with media and stains, washed and brought back into service many times. This reusable glass petri dish for labs in India and abroad is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Glass Petri Dish Used For?

Petri dishes are the standard vessel for bacteria culture experiments: sterile agar is poured in, allowed to set, then inoculated with swabs from hands, surfaces or air exposure to show where microbes grow. Botany classes line a dish with moist filter paper to germinate seeds and follow root and shoot growth day by day, while other groups use dishes to grow bread mould, observe small aquatic organisms under a hand lens, or hold specimens during dissection. Few items of microbiology lab equipment are used as often in a school or college.

Sterilise glass dishes before culture work by the method your lab follows, and allow them to cool gradually. Label the base rather than the lid, since lids can be swapped. After microbial work, sterilise the used dishes and their contents before washing, then clean with detergent and rinse well so no residue affects the next culture.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited trades as ScienceLab and is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this petri dish, which it makes at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges, hospital laboratories, dealers and importers are supplied factory-direct, so the glassware does not pass through a trader before it reaches the bench.

pH Paper (Product Code: SCL319/058) is an indicator test paper used to check whether a liquid is acidic, neutral or alkaline in school, college and field-study work. Supplied in a plastic box pack of 100 leaves, it gives results in less than one minute, and because the strips replace liquid indicators they eliminate chemical handling and cleanup. This pH indicator paper for labs in India and abroad is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the pH Paper Used For?

Biology students use pH paper to test soil extracts, pond and rain water, saliva, fruit juices and the contents of digestion experiments, where the change in acidity shows an enzyme at work. Chemistry classes use it in an acid base indicator activity to sort household substances such as vinegar, soap solution and baking soda along the pH scale, and field groups carry a box to test streams and wells on the spot.

Tear off a small piece, touch it with a drop of the liquid on a clean glass rod or dip it briefly, and compare the colour with the key on the label straight away and in good daylight. Handle leaves with clean, dry fingers or forceps, and close the box immediately after use so that acid or ammonia fumes in the lab do not discolour the remaining paper.

Supplier

This pH paper is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, together with other test papers, indicators and reagents for teaching laboratories. For vendor registration, the supplying company is Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597, GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT). Read more on our company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pH range does this pH Paper cover?
The pH range of this pH Paper is not stated in our current listing, so we do not quote one. Ask us through the contact page, or see the Paper, Universal, pH 1-14 listing if your practical needs that stated range.

How many leaves are in a pack of pH paper?
Each plastic box of pH paper holds 100 leaves, enough for many individual tests across a class. Tear off only a small piece for each sample so that a single pack lasts through several practicals.

How quickly does pH paper give a result?
The pH paper gives a result in less than one minute. Touch or dip a small piece, then compare its colour promptly against the key on the label in good daylight, before the colour has time to change as the paper dries.

Should I use pH paper or a pH meter?
pH paper gives a fast, colour-based estimate without handling liquid indicators, which suits class tests and fieldwork. A pH meter gives a numerical value and is the better choice wherever a precise reading matters.

What is the shelf life of the pH paper?
Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so we do not state a fixed period for this pH paper. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and keep the box closed, dry and out of sunlight.

Who supplies the pH Paper SCL319/058?
The pH Paper is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, distributors and importers in India and international markets. Quote the code SCL319/058 and the number of packs for a quotation.

Can the pH paper be used outdoors?
Yes, the pH paper suits outdoor use: the colour key on the label is intended for readings in the lab or in the field, so groups can test streams, wells or soil extracts on the spot and record results immediately.

Pipette (Product Code: SCL322/059) is a bulb-form glass pipette used to measure and transfer a fixed 25 ml volume of liquid in biology and chemistry labs. Its listed tolerance of 0.03 ml gives students and technicians the precision that titrations, dilutions and standard solutions need, which a beaker or measuring cylinder cannot match. Clear, heat resistant and chemical resistant, this borosilicate laboratory glassware is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Bulb Pipette Used For?

A bulb pipette is filled slightly above its mark, the liquid is let down until the bottom of the meniscus sits on the mark, and the full 25 ml is then run into the receiving flask. In biology and chemistry practicals this is how students take exact aliquots of a sample for titration, prepare serial dilutions from a stock solution, or add a measured volume of reagent in food tests and enzyme experiments. The 0.03 ml tolerance keeps the delivered volume dependable enough for quantitative school and college work.

Always draw liquid up with a pipette filler rather than by mouth, keep the pipette vertical while reading the mark at eye level, and let it drain freely against the inside wall of the vessel. Rinse it first with a little of the solution being measured and with distilled water after use, then store it upright. Although borosilicate glass resists heat and chemicals, air-drying volumetric glassware instead of baking it helps keep the mark trustworthy. Schools planning a biology lab setup usually keep bulb pipettes alongside graduated ones so each job gets the right tool.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) that produces this bulb pipette at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because the glassware is made by the company that sells it, schools, colleges, dealers and importers get their quotation from the source rather than from a middleman. Repeat orders and replacements for broken pipettes are handled by the manufacturer itself, so ask us whenever your lab needs more. You can read more on our company profile.

Related Laboratory Equipment

These items are used with a bulb pipette in the same measuring and dilution work:

• Bulb Type, Pipette Filler — draws liquid into the pipette safely, without mouth suction.
• Pipette Stand — holds pipettes upright for draining and tidy storage.
• Glass Pipettes Graduated — for variable volumes where one fixed volume will not do.
• Volumetric Flask — pairs with the pipette when making up standard solutions and dilutions.
• Distilled Water — for rinsing the pipette and diluting samples.

See the full Biology Lab range for more glassware and apparatus.

Frequently Asked Questions

What volume does this Pipette deliver?
This Pipette delivers 25 ml. As a bulb-form pipette it is designed for that single fixed volume, so for intermediate volumes a graduated pipette is the better choice, and many labs keep both types on the same bench.

How accurate is the 25 ml pipette?
The 25 ml pipette has a listed tolerance of 0.03 ml. Results in practice also depend on technique, such as reading the meniscus at eye level, keeping the pipette vertical and letting it drain properly against the vessel wall.

Can the pipette be used with hot or corrosive liquids?
The borosilicate glass pipette is heat and chemical resistant, so it tolerates most laboratory reagents. For accurate volumes, measure liquids close to room temperature, and always use a pipette filler for anything corrosive.

Is a pipette filler included?
A filler is not listed as part of this pipette. You can add the Bulb Type, Pipette Filler to your enquiry, or ask us to quote both together so students never need to use mouth suction.

Can a calibration certificate be provided with the pipette?
A calibration certificate is not listed for this pipette. Please discuss calibration documentation with us through the contact page before you order, and we will confirm what can be supplied with the 25 ml pipettes.

Who manufactures the Pipette SCL322/059?
The Pipette is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India. Institutions and dealers receive quotations for this borosilicate glassware directly from the manufacturer.

Do you supply pipettes in bulk for schools and export?
Yes, ScienceLab supplies the pipette in bulk to schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets. Share the code SCL322/059, your quantities and the destination for packing and shipping details.

Reagent Stand (Product Code: SCL323/060) is a brown wooden rack with 12 places used to hold reagent bottles upright and in order on biology and chemistry practical benches. Student groups sharing a common set of test solutions for food tests, staining or qualitative analysis can find each bottle in the same spot every lesson. This piece of school biology lab equipment is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Reagent Stand Used For?

Placing one stand on each bench, or one per student group, gives every team the same twelve reagents in a fixed order, so iodine solution, Benedict's reagent, dilute acids and indicators are always found in the same spot. That arrangement shortens setup time in a practical period and lowers the chance of a bottle being knocked over or picked up by mistake. Many teachers label each place to match the bottle label, which makes it quick to check at the end of class that every bottle has been returned.

A wooden stand is light to move between benches and gentle on glass bottles, but its surface can absorb spills. Wipe drips promptly with a damp cloth, keep strong acids and alkalis on a separate tray, and keep the stand away from open flames. When planning a school laboratory setup in India, reagent stands are usually ordered together with matching sets of reagent and dropping bottles.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known by its trading name ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this reagent stand and builds it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Institutions, dealers and importers buy it factory-direct, which means one quotation from the maker for enough stands to equip every bench. When you want matching stands for a new lab later, ask us and the manufacturer itself will handle the repeat order. More about the business is on our company profile.

Related Laboratory Equipment

Bottles and reagents that are typically kept on this stand:

• Reagent Bottle, Narrow Mouth — clear glass bottles to fill the places for everyday solutions.
• Reagent Bottle Narrow Mouth, Amber Glass — for solutions that should be shielded from light.
• Dropping Bottles — for indicators and stains dispensed a drop at a time.
• Iodine Sol — the starch-test reagent found on most biology benches.
• Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) — reducing-sugar reagent for food test practicals.

Browse the complete Biology Lab category for other bench essentials.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many bottles does the Reagent Stand hold?
The Reagent Stand has 12 places for reagent bottles. The listing does not state the opening size, so tell us the bottle size you use and we will confirm that it fits the stand before you order.

Are reagent bottles included with the stand?
Reagent bottles are not listed as part of this stand. They can be quoted separately, and we can price the stand and a matching set of bottles together on one enquiry.

What is the reagent stand made of?
The reagent stand is made of wood in a brown colour. Wood keeps the stand light enough to carry from bench to bench and is gentle on glass bottles when they are set down or lifted out.

How should the wooden reagent stand be cleaned?
Wipe the wooden reagent stand with a damp cloth and let it dry; do not soak it or wash it under running water. Clean chemical spills straight away so they do not mark or soak into the wood.

Can the same reagent stand be used in a chemistry lab?
Yes, the reagent stand simply holds reagent bottles, so it works equally well for salt analysis reagents, indicators or dilute acids in a chemistry room as for food-test reagents in biology.

Who manufactures the Reagent Stand SCL323/060?
The Reagent Stand is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools and dealers receive quotations directly from the manufacturer, with no trading intermediary involved.

We need stands for several benches. Can you quote in bulk?

Dissection Set (Product Code: SCL325/61) is a student kit of 17 basic surgical instruments used to open, separate and examine plant and animal specimens in biology lab experiments. The stainless steel instruments have a mirror finish and come packed in a leather kit, so each zoology or botany student keeps a complete personal set between practicals. This dissection set for biology classes in India and abroad is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Dissection Set Used For?

In a typical zoology practical the specimen is pinned out in a wax tray, the outer tissue is lifted and opened with fine cutting instruments, and blunt probes are used to tease structures apart without damaging them so organs can be identified and drawn. Botany students use the same kind of instruments to split flowers into their whorls, remove anthers and ovaries, and cut thin hand sections of stems and roots for staining and mounting. With a personal kit of 17 pieces, each student can follow the procedure step by step instead of waiting to share tools.

Stainless steel with a mirror finish is easy to wipe down and shows any residue clearly. Rinse the instruments in water straight after the practical, dry them thoroughly and only then return them to the leather kit, because moisture trapped inside a closed case is what usually dulls and stains blades. Keep cutting edges from knocking against each other, and supervise younger students closely when sharp instruments are in use. Schools buying a dissection kit for school labs in India often order one kit per student plus a few spares for the teacher's bench.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The number of kits you need, for example one dissection set per student plus spares for the teacher.
• Whether you want the standard stainless steel set or single-use instruments, which the listing notes may also be available.
• Any specific instruments your syllabus requires, so they can be checked against the 17 pieces in the kit before quoting.

Supplier

This dissection set is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, and provides biology, chemistry and physics apparatus to schools, colleges and laboratories in India and international markets. Buyers can add the trays, lenses and models needed for the same practical to one enquiry and receive a single quotation. Our company profile has more background.

What are the dissection set instruments made of?
The instruments in the dissection set are stainless steel with a mirror finish. This surface is simple to wipe clean after each practical and makes any remaining tissue or residue easy to spot before the set is packed away.

How is the dissection set packed?
The dissection set comes packed in a leather kit, so each student can carry and store all 17 instruments together in one place and quickly see whether a piece is missing at the end of a practical.

Are single-use dissection instruments available?
The dissection set listing notes that single-use instruments may also be available. Ask us about availability and quantities through the contact page if your lab prefers single-use instruments for large practical batches.

How do I keep the dissection instruments in good condition?
To keep the dissection set in good condition, rinse the instruments after use, dry them completely before closing the leather kit and keep blades from rubbing against each other. This prevents staining and helps edges stay sharp for longer.

Scissors (Product Code: SCL329/63) are a 4 inch pair of pointed steel scissors used for fine cutting of tissue, thread, dressings and paper in biology laboratories and in hospital or clinical settings. The short, silver-coloured blades are chemical resistant, and their sharp tips can start a cut through a very small opening, which suits student dissection work. Part of the zoology lab equipment range for schools and colleges, they are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Pointed Scissor Used For?

In a zoology practical, pointed scissors make the first small snip through the skin or body wall of a specimen and then extend the opening along a controlled line without tearing the organs beneath. Botany classes use them to trim leaves, petals and roots before mounting, and they are handy for cutting filter paper, thread and cotton to size on the bench. In clinics the same pattern is used for cutting dressings and bandages, and the compact 4 inch length gives good control for close, fine work.

Clean off tissue before it dries on the blades, wipe the pair with a damp cloth, dry it fully and keep the tips protected in a drawer or kit. Reserve the scissors for soft materials, because cutting wire or thick card quickly blunts the edges. A spare pair or two is a sensible addition to any dissection kit for school labs.

Supplier

These scissors are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, to schools, colleges, hospitals and laboratories. For vendor registration and export paperwork, the supplying company holds Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A (DGFT) and GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT. Read more on our company profile.

• Dissection Set — a complete 17-instrument student kit in a leather case.
• Forceps — grip and lift tissue steadily while you cut.
• Scalpel — for clean straight incisions where scissors are less suitable.
• Dissecting Needle — separates tissues gently once the cut has been made.
• Dissecting Tray with Wax — a firm, pinnable surface to work on.

Our Biology Lab category lists further tools and consumables.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long are these Scissors?
These Scissors are 4 inches long, a compact size that gives good control for fine cutting close to a specimen, a dressing or a thread, where longer blades would be harder to guide.

Are the tips of the scissors pointed or blunt?
The scissors have pointed tips, which start a cut through a very small opening. If your application needs a blunt or rounded tip, ask us about alternatives before ordering.

What material are the scissors made from?
The scissors are made of steel in a silver colour and are chemical resistant. Clean off tissue before it dries and dry the blades fully after washing to keep the scissors in good condition.

Can the scissors be sterilised?
Sterilisation suitability is not stated in our listing for these scissors, so we make no claim about it. If you plan to use heat, steam or chemical sterilisation, please confirm with us through the contact page first.

Are the scissors suitable for school students?
Yes, the scissors can be used by school students with supervision. The pointed tips are sharp, so teachers usually issue the scissors for the practical, keep count during the lesson and collect them afterwards.

Who supplies the Scissors SCL329/63?
The Scissors are supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, hospitals, dealers and importers in India and international markets. Quote the code SCL329/63 with your quantity for a quotation.

Spirit Lamp (Product Code: SCL335/66) is a stainless steel alcohol lamp used to give a small, steady flame for gentle heating and for flaming tools in laboratories without a gas supply. It holds 60 ml of fuel, and biology teachers use it for warming food-test tubes, flaming loops and heat-fixing smears on slides. A staple of microbiology lab equipment in India, it is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Spirit Lamp Used For?

Spirit lamps burn an alcohol fuel through a wick, giving a cooler and quieter flame than a gas burner. That makes them well suited to warming a test tube of Benedict's reagent in a water-bath set-up, passing an inoculating loop or forceps through the flame before and after handling a culture, and briefly heat-fixing a bacterial smear before staining. Because the lamp is self-contained, it can be placed on any bench, in a field station or in a classroom that has no gas supply, and the 60 ml reservoir suits intermittent heating during a practical.

Refill only when the lamp is out and cool, away from other flames, and wipe away any spilled fuel before lighting. Stand the lamp on a stable, heat-resistant surface, never carry it while lit, and put the flame out by smothering it rather than blowing. The stainless steel body will not shatter if knocked over, which is one reason schools often choose metal lamps for student benches when buying school biology lab equipment.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this stainless steel spirit lamp and makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Because the lamp comes from the factory rather than a reseller, schools, colleges, dealers and importers deal directly with the maker on price and supply. For spares or extra lamps for a new lab, ask us and the manufacturer itself will respond. More about the company is on our company profile.

Related Laboratory Equipment

Items commonly used with a spirit lamp during heating and sterile work:

• Spirit — alcohol-based liquid for refilling the lamp.
• Glass Spirit Lamp — a glass-bodied alternative where the fuel level should be visible.
• Test Tube Holder — keeps fingers clear when a tube is warmed over the flame.
• Test Tubes (With Rim) — for heating small samples in food and enzyme tests.
• Plain Slides — for smears that are heat-fixed over the flame before staining.

Find more bench apparatus in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much fuel does the Spirit Lamp hold?
The Spirit Lamp holds 60 ml of fuel, enough for intermittent heating and flaming during a normal practical. Refill it only when the flame is out and the lamp has cooled, and always away from other flames.

What fuel should be used in a spirit lamp?
A spirit lamp is designed for alcohol-based fuels such as methylated spirit or denatured ethanol. Never fill the spirit lamp with petrol, kerosene or other volatile fuels, which can flare dangerously.

Why choose a stainless steel spirit lamp over glass?
A stainless steel spirit lamp does not break if it is knocked over on a busy student bench, while a glass lamp lets users see the fuel level. Choose the body that suits your students and your bench layout.

Is the spirit lamp hot enough to replace a Bunsen burner?
The spirit lamp gives a gentler flame intended for light heating, warming test tubes and flaming loops. For strong heating or for boiling larger volumes, a gas burner remains the better tool.

Is a wick or fuel supplied with the spirit lamp?
Whether a wick or fuel comes with the spirit lamp is not detailed in our listing. Please contact us to confirm what is included and to add spirit to your order if needed.

Who manufactures the Spirit Lamp SCL335/66?
The Spirit Lamp is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools and dealers get quotations for the stainless steel lamp straight from the manufacturer.

Can you supply spirit lamps for a whole lab or for export?

Sacchi Disc (Product Code: SCL337/67) is a 200 mm stainless steel disk used to indicate the turbidity of pond water during ecology and environmental science field work. Better known in textbooks as a Secchi disc, it lets students compare the clarity of different water bodies without any electronics. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as part of its zoology lab equipment range.

Specifications

What Is the Sacchi Disc Used For?

The disc is tied to a marked line and lowered slowly into the water from a boat, jetty or bank until it just vanishes from view. That depth is noted, the disc is lowered a little further and then raised until it reappears, and the average of the two readings is recorded as the transparency depth. Clear water lets the disc be seen deeper, while water rich in plankton, algae or suspended silt hides it close to the surface.

Classes use it to compare several ponds, follow one pond through the seasons, or see how rain run-off and algal blooms change water clarity, which makes it a natural part of an environmental science kit for schools. For comparable results, read around midday on the shaded side of the platform, without sunglasses, and let the same person take every reading. Rinse the disc in clean water after fieldwork and dry it before storage.

OEM Manufacturer

The Sacchi Disc is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab. As the OEM (original equipment manufacturer), the company makes the stainless steel disc at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, rather than buying it in from a trader. Schools, colleges, institutions, dealers and importers are supplied factory-direct, and enquiries about replacement discs or repeat orders go straight to the manufacturer — just ask us. Read more on our company profile.

• Invertebrate Sampling Tray — for sorting pond organisms collected on the survey.

Explore the wider Biology Lab range for field and classroom apparatus.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is the Sacchi Disc?
The Sacchi Disc (SCL337/67) has a 200 mm diameter disk. Students lower it into pond water and watch until it disappears, giving a transparency depth they can record and compare between sites or seasons.

What material is the Sacchi Disc made of?
The Sacchi Disc is made of stainless steel (SS), so the 200 mm plate can be dipped into pond water on field trip after field trip and simply rinsed and dried afterwards, without the rusting a plain iron plate would suffer.

Does the Sacchi Disc come with a measuring line?
A line is not listed with the Sacchi Disc. Attach your own marked cord or use a tape measure to read the depth at which the disc disappears, or ask us if you would like a line quoted with it.

Does the Sacchi Disc give a numerical turbidity value?
No. The Sacchi Disc indicates turbidity as the depth at which the disc stays visible, not as a meter reading. Where a numerical turbidity figure is required, an electronic turbidity meter is the instrument to use instead.

Who manufactures the Sacchi Disc?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) is the OEM manufacturer of the Sacchi Disc. It is made at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and quotations, repeat orders and spares enquiries are handled by the manufacturer directly.

Can ScienceLab supply several Sacchi Discs for a field programme?
Yes. For a class set or an export order of the Sacchi Disc, send code SCL337/67, the number of discs and the delivery address; ScienceLab supplies schools, dealers and importers in India and international markets.

Thermometer Alcohol (Product Code: SCL343/070) is a graduated glass laboratory thermometer used to measure temperatures from −10 to 110 °C in school, college and research practicals. Its alcohol-type filling covers everything from ice mixtures to boiling water, so a single thermometer handles water baths, enzyme experiments and field readings on the school biology lab bench. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Alcohol Thermometer Used For?

Because the scale runs a little below freezing and a little above the boiling point of water, the thermometer suits a wide spread of experiments: holding water baths at set temperatures to study how temperature affects amylase activity, checking that a bath is hot enough for Benedict's test, recording pond-water temperature on an ecology survey, following the warmth given off by germinating seeds, and plotting the boiling point or cooling curve of water in chemistry.

For an accurate reading, immerse the bulb fully without letting it touch the sides or bottom of the vessel, wait until the column stops moving and read at eye level. Check before each class that the liquid column is continuous, never take it above 110 °C, and avoid moving it straight from hot liquid to cold. Store it in a case or rack so the stem is not knocked; if one does break, there is only glass to clear up, with no mercury involved.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this alcohol thermometer. It is produced at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, institutions, dealers and importers, so quotations and repeat orders come from the maker itself rather than a middleman. For vendor registration, institutional buyers can record the company's GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT and Legal Entity Identifier 3358004HRD1JIVXKYX49. More background is on our company profile.

Related Biology Lab

Apparatus used with this thermometer when heating or holding a temperature:

• Beaker — holds the water or solution being heated and measured.
• Thermometer Clamp — keeps the thermometer at a fixed depth instead of resting on the glass.
• Retort Stand — supports the clamp and thermometer over the vessel.
• Spirit Lamp — a gentle heat source for warming small water baths.
• Test Tubes (With Rim) — for enzyme and food-test samples kept at controlled temperatures.

See the complete Biology Lab category for more measuring apparatus.

Frequently Asked Questions

What temperature range does the Thermometer Alcohol cover?
The Thermometer Alcohol (SCL343/070) reads from −10 to 110 °C. That span takes in ice–salt mixtures below freezing, water baths held for enzyme work and water at its boiling point, covering most school and college biology practicals.

What is the smallest division on the Thermometer Alcohol scale?
The Thermometer Alcohol is graduated, but the size of each division is not stated in the product listing. If your practical calls for a particular resolution, contact us before ordering and we will confirm what the scale offers.

Why choose an alcohol thermometer over a mercury one?
An alcohol thermometer such as the Thermometer Alcohol contains no mercury, so a breakage in a school lab leaves only glass to sweep up, while its −10 to 110 °C range still suits most biology and chemistry practicals.

Can the Thermometer Alcohol be used to take body temperature?

Thermometer (Digital) (Product Code: SCL345/071) is a pen-type digital thermometer used to measure human body temperature orally, rectally or under the arm in hospitals, clinics, homes and physiology classes. It reads 32–42.9 °C on a 4-digit LCD, and the listing describes it as reusable for clinical or home use on people of all ages. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as a practical item for any health education kit for schools.

Specifications

What Is the Digital Thermometer Used For?

In a human physiology practical, students take their own temperature at rest and again after a short spell of exercise, compare oral and underarm readings, or log readings at several times of day to see how body temperature varies. The 32–42.9 °C range spans normal readings as well as fever, and the 0.1 °C accuracy makes those small differences easy to see. School sick rooms, clinics and hospital wards use the same device for routine checks.

Switch the thermometer on, place the tip under the tongue with the mouth closed or deep in the armpit with the arm held against the body, and keep it still for the full 1 minute measurement time before reading the LCD. Clean the tip before and after each person, keep a separate unit for rectal use, and switch it off after use to spare the 1.55 V lithium battery. A few of these in the biology lab make physiology practicals quicker than working with glass clinical thermometers.

Water Bath (Copper) (Product Code: SCL352/075) is a 6 inch hemispherical water bath made of copper sheet, used in biology practicals to heat test tubes and small vessels gently in hot water rather than over a direct flame. It has two handles and a set of concentric rings that adjust the opening to the vessel. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Copper Water Bath Used For in Biology?

In the Benedict's test for reducing sugars, tubes of food extract and reagent are stood in the boiling water bath for a few minutes until a coloured precipitate forms. In the starch test on leaves, a leaf softened in hot water is placed in a tube of alcohol, and that tube is warmed in the bath so the chlorophyll is removed without bringing the alcohol near a naked flame.

Teachers also use the bath for simple enzyme and temperature experiments, adjusting the flame and checking the water with a thermometer. Keep the water well above the base of the tubes, stand tubes in a small beaker if they tend to tip, and dry the bath after class to keep the copper in good condition. It is a basic item of biology lab equipment in India for secondary schools.

OEM Manufacturer

The Water Bath (Copper) is made by ScienceLab — the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited — at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. As the OEM, the company supplies biology departments, colleges, dealers and importers directly, and handles replacement rings and repeat orders itself — ask us.

Quadrat (Product Code: SCL353/076) is a square sampling frame of plastic-coated steel, divided into 25 sub grids, used to measure plant cover, density and frequency in ecology field studies. Students in schools, colleges and field courses lay it on grassland, lawns, forest floors or shorelines to compare species within a fixed area. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India, as a core item of botany lab equipment.

Specifications

What Is the Quadrat Used For?

Students place the quadrat at random points, for example using coordinates drawn from random numbers, or at fixed intervals along a transect running from one habitat into another. Inside the frame they count individual plants to work out density, estimate percentage cover from the small squares a species fills, or record whether a species is present in each of the 25 sub grids to calculate its frequency. Repeating this across many placements lets a class compare trampled and untrampled grass, sun and shade, or the zones of a pond margin.

Decide the placement method before starting and use it every time, so the results are free of bias. The plastic coating shields the steel from damp soil and wipes clean, so rinse off mud and let the frame dry before storing it flat. A set of quadrats turns an outing into a proper data exercise and is the backbone of any ecology science kit for schools and colleges.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The sub-grid division: 25 sub grids as listed, or one of the other sub-grid patterns available.
• The frame size your syllabus or field manual specifies, since it is not stated in this listing.
• The number of quadrats needed, for example one per student group.
• Product code SCL353/076 and the delivery address for the quotation.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, is the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this quadrat. The plastic-coated steel frame is made at the company's own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, field-study centres, dealers and importers. Because the maker handles every order itself, requests for a different sub-grid pattern or a repeat class set can simply be raised with us. More on our company profile.

Wire Gauge (Product Code: SCL357/078) is a 6" square iron-wire gauze with a ceramic circle in the centre, used on a tripod to spread a burner's heat evenly under beakers, flasks and dishes. Known in most classrooms as a wire gauze, it has rolled smooth edges and belongs on every bench where glassware is heated in school chemistry and biology practicals. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Wire Gauze Used For?

The gauze is laid on a tripod with a Bunsen burner or spirit lamp underneath, and the beaker, flask or dish sits on top. The ceramic centre lies directly over the flame and diffuses the heat, so the glass warms across its whole base instead of at one hot spot, which greatly reduces the risk of cracking. It also gives small vessels a flat, stable platform that stops them tipping or slipping through the tripod ring. Typical jobs include boiling water for the starch-in-leaf test, heating a solution until crystals start to form and dissolving agar for a culture medium.

Centre the vessel over the ceramic circle and never heat empty glassware. Iron stays hot long after the flame is turned off, so leave the gauze to cool on the tripod before moving it. Store it dry to limit rusting and replace it once the ceramic centre cracks or flakes. Most schools order one gauze for every tripod stand so each bench has a complete heating station.

OEM Manufacturer

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of this wire gauze. Each gauze is made at the company's own factory in Ambala, Haryana, India and supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, institutions, dealers and importers, so replacement gauzes and repeat bench sets are handled by the manufacturer itself — just ask us. Production takes place at the company's licensed factory at 449, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala (Factory Licence AMB-ONLINE-CHD-J-414), and the company is incorporated under CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597. See our company profile for more.

The rest of a standard heating set-up:

• Tripod Cast Iron Varnished — the stand the gauze rests on.
• Bunsen Burner — the gas heat source below the gauze.
• Spirit Lamp — a flame source for rooms without a gas supply.
• Beaker — the vessel most often heated on the gauze.
• Gauze Wire — plain wire squares without a ceramic centre, as an alternative.

More apparatus is available in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Wire Gauge a tool for measuring wire thickness?
No. Despite its catalogue name, the Wire Gauge (SCL357/078) is a heating gauze that sits on a tripod under glassware. It spreads the flame's heat; it is not a gauge for measuring the diameter of wire.

What size is the Wire Gauge?
The Wire Gauge is listed as 6" dia and is square in shape. If it must fit a particular tripod ring or bench set-up, contact us to confirm the dimensions before placing your order.

What does the ceramic centre of the Wire Gauge do?
The ceramic circle in the centre of the Wire Gauge spreads the burner flame's heat across the base of the beaker or flask, so the glass warms evenly and is not exposed to one concentrated hot spot.

How should the Wire Gauge be cared for?
Let the Wire Gauge cool on the tripod after heating, because iron holds heat for a long time. Store it dry to limit rusting, and replace it once the ceramic centre cracks or flakes away.

Who manufactures the Wire Gauge?
The Wire Gauge is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, dealers and importers receive it factory-direct, with quotations issued by the manufacturer.

Can you supply Wire Gauges for a whole lab or for export?
Yes. Send code SCL357/078, the number of Wire Gauges and the delivery destination; ScienceLab quotes directly as the maker for schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets.

Teachers and lab assistants rely on it as the acid base of acetocarmine-type stains, and it comes with an MSDS for safe handling. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, for any staining kit in a biology lab.

Specifications

What Is the Acetic Acid Glacial Used For?

In cell biology practicals, acetic acid is a component of acetic-alcohol fixatives that preserve onion or garlic root tips so the stages of cell division can be seen, and it is the acid base of acetocarmine and aceto-orcein stains that colour the chromosomes. After fixing and a brief acid treatment, the softened tip is stained, squashed under a coverslip and examined under the microscope. Chemistry and general science classes also use acetic acid to show how a weak acid behaves with indicators, carbonates and metals.

Read the MSDS before use, wear goggles and gloves, and handle the acid in a well-ventilated area. When preparing any dilution, add acid to water rather than the reverse, and label the new bottle with its contents and date. Keep the container tightly closed, away from heat, flames and oxidising chemicals.

What to Specify When Ordering

• The concentration you need — glacial (undiluted) acid or a 1 % solution — since the listed name carries both terms.
• The number of 500 ml packs required.
• The delivery destination, as chemical shipments follow the transport rules of the country they are sent to.

Acetone (Extra Pure) (Product Code: SCL359/080) is a fast-evaporating organic solvent in a 500 ml pack, used to extract chlorophyll and other leaf pigments and to run paper chromatography in biology practicals. It comes with an MSDS, and the listing also describes it as an analytical reagent. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as an everyday solvent for any paper chromatography kit for schools and colleges.

Specifications

What Is the Acetone Used For?

For the leaf-pigment practical, fresh leaves are ground in a mortar with a little clean sand and acetone until the liquid turns deep green, and the extract is filtered. A concentrated spot of it is placed on a strip of chromatography paper, which is stood in a closed jar holding a shallow layer of developing solvent. As the solvent climbs, it carries the pigments different distances and separates carotene, xanthophylls and the chlorophylls into distinct coloured bands. Acetone is also handy as a final rinse that removes grease and marker ink and helps washed glassware dry quickly.

Acetone is highly flammable and its vapour spreads easily, so keep every flame, including spirit lamps and burners, well away while it is in use, and work in a ventilated room. Replace the cap straight after pouring, since it evaporates fast, and wear gloves because it dries the skin. Pour it into glass rather than plastic containers, as it attacks many plastics.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading identity of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, located in Ambala, Haryana. The company sources and supplies solvents such as this acetone along with the mortars, filter papers and chromatography jars used with them, serving schools, colleges and research labs in India and international markets.

Find more reagents in our Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much Acetone (Extra Pure) is in one pack?
Each pack of Acetone (Extra Pure) holds 500 ml. Replace the cap promptly after pouring, because acetone evaporates quickly and a bottle left open loses both volume and purity during a busy practical session.

Is Acetone (Extra Pure) extra pure or analytical reagent grade?
Acetone (Extra Pure) is named Extra Pure, and the listing also describes it as an analytical reagent. If your syllabus or tender needs a specific grade or purity figure, contact us to confirm it before you place the order.

Is Acetone (Extra Pure) safe to use near a flame?
No. Acetone (Extra Pure) is highly flammable and its vapour spreads easily, so keep spirit lamps and burners well away while it is in use and work in a ventilated room, as the supplied MSDS explains.

Can Acetone (Extra Pure) be stored in plastic bottles?
It is best to keep Acetone (Extra Pure) in its original container or in glass. Acetone softens or dissolves many common plastics, so decanting it into plastic wash bottles can damage the bottle and contaminate the solvent.

What is the shelf life of Acetone (Extra Pure)?
No fixed shelf life is stated for Acetone (Extra Pure): shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and store the bottle tightly capped away from heat.

Who supplies Acetone (Extra Pure), and can it be exported?
Acetone (Extra Pure) is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India. Flammable liquids carry transport restrictions, so send code SCL359/080, the quantity and destination, and we will advise on shipping options for international orders.

Agar Block (Product Code: SCL360/081) is a 500 gm pack of agar, the seaweed-derived gelling agent used to set culture media, diffusion blocks and gels in biology and microbiology practicals. Listed as an analytical reagent and supplied with an MSDS, it is the starting point for any agar plate preparation kit in a school or college lab. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to teaching and microbiology laboratories.

Specifications

What Is the Agar Block Used For?

Agar is dissolved in boiling water, poured while hot into petri dishes or trays and left to set. In microbiology practicals, nutrients are added before pouring so the plates can grow bacteria and fungi from air, soil or unwashed and washed hands — a simple way to show why hygiene matters. For diffusion experiments, agar set with an indicator is cut into cubes of different sizes and placed in a solution that changes the indicator's colour; timing how fast the colour reaches the centre shows the effect of surface area to volume ratio. Plant physiology classes also use small agar blocks to show how growth substances move from a shoot tip.

Weigh the agar accurately, sprinkle it into the water while stirring to avoid lumps, and keep heating until the liquid turns completely clear. Let it cool until the flask can be held before pouring, and for culture work follow your institution's biosafety rules, sealing plates once inoculated. Keep the pack tightly closed in a cool, dry place, because agar picks up moisture from the air.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited does business as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, and supplies agar together with the petri dishes, flasks and balances needed to prepare it. The company serves microbiology, botany and general biology laboratories in schools, colleges and institutions across India and international markets. More on our company profile.

• Distilled Water — for making up clean gels and media.
• Digital Analytical Balance — weighs the agar accurately for each batch.
• Spirit Lamp — for flaming loops when inoculating plates.

More reagents and glassware are in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much agar is in one Agar Block pack?
Each Agar Block pack contains 500 gm of agar, listed as an analytical reagent. Only a modest amount is weighed out for each batch of gel or medium, so one pack supports repeated plate pouring and diffusion practicals.

Is the Agar Block a ready-to-use culture medium?
No. The Agar Block is the gelling agent only. To grow bacteria or fungi, nutrients must be added before the agar is poured into petri dishes; plain agar gels are used for diffusion and plant physiology demonstrations.

Why does the Agar Block not dissolve in cold water?
Agar from the Agar Block needs to be heated to boiling with steady stirring before it dissolves completely. Once the liquid turns clear it can be cooled slightly and poured, and it sets again into a firm gel as it cools.

How should the Agar Block be stored, and how long does it keep?
Store the Agar Block sealed in a cool, dry place, because agar absorbs moisture. Its shelf life depends on the material, its grade and storage conditions, so ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.

Who supplies the Agar Block?
The Agar Block is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, with an MSDS. For gel-strength or purity figures required by a syllabus or tender, contact us before ordering so we can confirm the details.

Ammonium Oxalate (Product Code: SCL364/084) is a white crystalline salt in a 500 gm pack, used to test for calcium and to prepare the crystal violet stain for Gram staining in biology and chemistry labs. It is listed as an analytical reagent and comes with an MSDS, which makes it a standard item in a Gram stain kit for school and college laboratories. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Ammonium Oxalate Used For?

To test for calcium, a few drops of ammonium oxalate solution are added to the sample — milk whey, an extract of plant ash or a water sample — and a white precipitate of calcium oxalate shows that calcium is present. The same reaction serves as the confirmatory test for calcium in school salt analysis. In microbiology, ammonium oxalate is dissolved with crystal violet to prepare the primary stain for the Gram method, which divides bacteria into Gram-positive and Gram-negative groups.

Oxalates are harmful if swallowed and can irritate skin and eyes, so read the MSDS, wear gloves and goggles, and wash hands after use. Make up solutions with distilled water, because tap water may already contain calcium and give a cloudy result. Label each prepared bottle with its name and date, and keep the stock container tightly closed in a dry cupboard away from food.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the name under which Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, Ambala, Haryana, supplies reagents such as ammonium oxalate alongside the test tubes, balances and reagent bottles used to prepare and apply them. For vendor registration, the supplying company is GST-registered under GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT and ships export orders under Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A (DGFT).

Browse our Biology Lab category for other reagents and stains.

Frequently Asked Questions

What quantity of Ammonium Oxalate is in each pack?
Each pack of Ammonium Oxalate contains 500 gm of the salt, listed as an analytical reagent and supplied with an MSDS. Solutions are made up from it as needed for calcium tests or Gram stain preparation.

What does Ammonium Oxalate test for?
Ammonium Oxalate is mainly used to test for calcium. When calcium ions are present in a sample such as milk whey or a plant-ash extract, a white precipitate of calcium oxalate forms in the test tube.

Why make up Ammonium Oxalate solution with distilled water?
Ammonium Oxalate reacts with any calcium present, and tap water often contains dissolved calcium. Using distilled water keeps the reagent clear, so a white precipitate in the test can be attributed to the sample itself.

Is Ammonium Oxalate hazardous to handle?
Yes. Ammonium Oxalate is harmful if swallowed and can irritate skin and eyes. Read the MSDS supplied with the pack, wear gloves and goggles, and wash hands after use; keep the stock away from food areas.

Ammonium Molybdate (Product Code: SCL367/085) is an analytical reagent in a 100 gm pack, used to detect phosphate in biology and chemistry practicals, where it forms a distinctive yellow precipitate. Teachers use it to show that bone ash, plant ash, soil or fertiliser samples contain phosphorus, and an MSDS is supplied with every pack. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a laboratory chemicals supplier in India for teaching and institutional labs.

Specifications

What Is the Ammonium Molybdate Used For?

The classic teaching use is the phosphate test. The sample is dissolved or extracted in dilute nitric acid, a solution of ammonium molybdate is added and the tube is warmed gently; a canary-yellow precipitate of ammonium phosphomolybdate confirms phosphate. Students meet this test when studying the mineral content of bone, the phosphorus held in plant tissue, or the composition of soil and fertiliser samples in school and college practical sessions.

For reliable results, make up the reagent solution in distilled water shortly before the class and use thoroughly rinsed glassware — traces of phosphate-containing detergent left in a tube can give a false positive. Keep the container tightly closed in a cool, dry place, read the supplied MSDS before handling, and have students wear gloves and eye protection whenever acids are involved.

Supplier

Ammonium Molybdate is offered under the ScienceLab name, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, Ambala, Haryana. The company supplies reagents for biology and chemistry teaching together with the acids, test tubes and heat sources the phosphate test needs, to schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets.

Barium Sulphate (Product Code: SCL368/086) is a dense white, practically insoluble salt supplied as an analytical reagent in a 500 gm pack, used to demonstrate precipitation and as a reference sample for the sulphate test. Chemistry and biochemistry teachers keep it so students can compare their own precipitate with the known compound. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as a useful addition to a salt analysis kit for school practicals.

Specifications

What Is the Barium Sulphate Used For?

In the sulphate test, barium chloride solution is added to an acidified solution containing sulphate ions, and a white precipitate of barium sulphate forms. Keeping a pure sample on the shelf lets students compare the look of their precipitate with the known compound, check that it does not redissolve in dilute acid, and practise filtering and drying an insoluble solid. It is equally useful in college inorganic chemistry and biochemistry classes.

Barium sulphate also gives teachers a practical way to discuss why some compounds pass through the body unabsorbed — the reasoning behind the barium meal used in medical imaging. This pack, however, is a laboratory reagent for teaching and analysis, not a medical product. Weigh it in a clean, dry area, avoid raising dust, and follow the supplied MSDS for storage and disposal.

Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) (Product Code: SCL370/088) is a blue, copper-based analytical reagent in a 500 ml pack, used to detect glucose and other reducing sugars in food tests and biochemistry practicals. On heating with a sample, its colour shifts from blue towards brick-red as the sugar content rises, which makes it the staple Benedict solution for school practicals in India. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Benedict's Reagent Used For?

To test a sample, students mix it with Benedict's reagent in a test tube and heat the tube in a boiling water bath for a few minutes. A reducing sugar such as glucose, fructose, maltose or lactose reduces the copper ions, and the mixture moves from blue through green, yellow and orange to a brick-red precipitate — the further along that sequence, the more sugar is present. Because the result is semi-quantitative, classes can rank fruit juices, milk or germinating-seed extracts by their reducing-sugar content.

Always run a known glucose solution as a positive control and water as a negative control, and keep the heating time identical for every tube so colours can be compared fairly. As a single ready-mixed solution, the reagent suits large classes where many groups test at once. Keep the bottle capped between sessions and follow the supplied MSDS.

Supplier

This reagent is supplied under ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, whose operations are based in Ambala, Haryana, India. Alongside reagents, the company supplies the test tubes, beakers and sugars used in food-test lessons to biology, chemistry and physics laboratories in India and international markets. Our company profile gives more background.

Related Biology Lab

Useful companions for a reducing-sugar practical:

• Glucose — a known reducing sugar for the positive control tube.
• Sucrose — a non-reducing sugar that shows students a negative result.
• Test Tubes (With Rim) — for heating sample and reagent together.
• Beaker — holds the boiling water bath for the tubes.
• Fehling' S Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) — an alternative reducing-sugar test for comparison.

For more reagents and apparatus, browse the Biology Lab range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a positive result with Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) look like?
After heating, Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) turns from blue to green, yellow, orange or brick-red depending on how much reducing sugar the sample holds. A mixture that stays blue shows that no reducing sugar was detected.

Will Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) detect sucrose?
Not directly, because sucrose is a non-reducing sugar. Boil the sucrose sample with dilute acid and neutralise it; the glucose and fructose released will then give a positive colour change with Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose).

How is Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) different from Fehling's solution?
Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) is a single, milder alkaline solution ready to use, whereas Fehling's solutions A and B are stored separately and mixed just before the test, which makes Benedict's simpler for large classes.

What volume of Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) is supplied?
Each pack of Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) contains 500 ml of analytical reagent, supplied with an MSDS. Only a small volume is needed per test tube, so a single pack serves many student tests.

What is the shelf life of Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose)?
The shelf life of Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) depends on the reagent, its grade and storage conditions, so no fixed period is stated. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and store it capped away from sunlight.

Who supplies Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) for several schools?

Biuret Reagent (Protein Test) (Product Code: SCL371/089) is an alkaline, copper-containing analytical reagent in a 125 ml pack, used to detect proteins by turning violet when peptide bonds are present. Biology teachers use it for food tests and enzyme lessons, and because the test runs at room temperature it suits younger classes as well as introductory biochemistry. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as a compact item for any biology lab setup in a school.

Specifications

What Is the Biuret Reagent Used For?

The biuret test needs no heating: add the reagent to the sample in a test tube, shake gently and wait briefly. Copper ions in the alkaline reagent bind to peptide bonds, and the pale blue mixture turns violet or purple if protein is present. Egg white, milk and extracts of pulses or germinating seeds give clear positives, so a class can compare protein-rich and starch-rich foods in the same lesson or follow protein digestion in an enzyme experiment.

Set up a water blank beside the samples so students can judge the colour change against the unchanged blue. Because the reagent is alkaline, gloves and eye protection are advisable and spills should be wiped up promptly. The test is usually repeated across several sections of the same class, so keep the bottle capped between sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What colour shows protein with Biuret Reagent (Protein Test)?
Violet to purple. When Biuret Reagent (Protein Test) is mixed with a sample containing protein, copper ions bind to the peptide bonds and the pale blue mixture turns violet; if it stays blue, no protein was detected.

Does the test with Biuret Reagent (Protein Test) need heating?
No. Biuret Reagent (Protein Test) works at room temperature: add it to the sample, shake gently and wait briefly. That makes the protein test quicker and safer for younger students than the heated sugar tests.

Will Biuret Reagent (Protein Test) detect individual amino acids?
No. Biuret Reagent (Protein Test) reacts with peptide bonds, so free amino acids give a negative result. When amino acids themselves are the target, use a ninhydrin solution instead, which is also listed in our Biology Lab range.

Boric Acid (Product Code: SCL372/090) is a weak acid supplied as an analytical reagent in a 500 gm pack, used to prepare borate buffers such as TBE for DNA gel electrophoresis and to add boron to pollen-germination media. College biotechnology departments and school biology labs use it with the supplied MSDS on file. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, as a routine buffer ingredient for any gel electrophoresis kit in India.

Specifications

What Is the Boric Acid Used For?

In the pollen-germination practical, students dust fresh pollen onto a drop of sugar solution containing a trace of boric acid on a cavity slide and watch pollen tubes emerge under the microscope; since boron supports pollen-tube growth, slides with and without it make a simple investigation. In college molecular biology, boric acid is weighed out with the other buffer components, dissolved in distilled water and checked on a pH meter before an electrophoresis run.

Weigh it on a clean, dry balance pan and close the container straight away, as the powder can cake if it absorbs moisture. Although it is only a weak acid, boric acid should never be treated as harmless: avoid swallowing it or inhaling the dust, keep it out of reach of young students, and follow the supplied MSDS for storage and disposal.

Cellulose Enzyme (DNA Separation) (Product Code: SCL373/091) is an enzyme preparation in a 100 ml pack used to digest the cellulose of plant cell walls during DNA isolation practicals. Listed as an analytical reagent and supplied with an MSDS, it lets students release DNA from onion, spinach or fruit tissue, which makes it a key item in a DNA extraction kit for schools in India. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Cellulose Enzyme Used For?

The textbook route to isolating DNA from plant material runs in stages: the tissue is ground, the cell walls are digested with a cellulose-degrading enzyme, proteins and RNA are removed with protease and ribonuclease, and the DNA is finally precipitated with chilled ethanol, where it appears as fine white threads that can be spooled onto a glass rod. This enzyme covers the cell-wall step, which is what makes onion, spinach or fruit usable in a classroom extraction for senior secondary and undergraduate biotechnology courses.

Enzymes are sensitive to heat and pH, so follow the incubation conditions in your practical manual and never add the enzyme to a hot mixture. Check the label and supplied MSDS for the recommended storage conditions, keep the bottle closed between uses, and draw from it with a clean pipette each time so the stock is not contaminated.

Chloroform (Chromatography) (Product Code: SCL375/092) is an analytical reagent grade organic solvent used as, or blended into, the mobile phase that separates plant pigments and other compounds in school and college chromatography practicals. It comes in a 500 ml pack with its MSDS, a practical refill for any paper chromatography kit school laboratories run. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Chloroform (Chromatography) Used For?

The best-known biology practical separates the pigments of a green leaf. A concentrated leaf extract is spotted near the base of a paper strip, the strip is hung in a closed jar over a shallow layer of solvent, and as the solvent rises the pigments travel different distances, leaving separate bands of carotenes, xanthophylls and chlorophylls. Chloroform-based solvent systems are also used in thin-layer chromatography of lipids and other non-polar compounds.

Chloroform vapour is harmful, so dispense it in a fume cupboard or a well-ventilated room and keep the jar lid on throughout the run, which also keeps the chamber saturated for sharper bands. Let teachers rather than students handle the stock bottle, store it tightly closed away from light and heat, and follow the MSDS for spills and waste. It sits comfortably on the reagent shelf of school chemistry lab equipment in India as well as in the biology room.

Cobalt Chloride (Product Code: SCL376/093) is an analytical reagent grade salt used to prepare blue-to-pink moisture indicator papers for detecting water in school and college biology practicals. Packed as 100 gm with its MSDS, it lets teachers make their own strips for comparing water loss from the two surfaces of a leaf, the base chemical of a home-made transpiration experiment kit in India's school labs. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Cobalt Chloride Used For?

To make indicator paper, strips of filter paper are soaked in cobalt chloride solution and dried until fully blue, then kept in a desiccator until needed. In the classic transpiration practical, one strip is held against the upper surface of a leaf and another against the lower surface, each covered with a glass slide and clipped in place. Students time how long each strip takes to turn pink and relate the difference to the number of stomata on each surface.

The same papers confirm that a colourless liquid is water, a routine test in botany and general science. Cobalt compounds are toxic and can irritate or sensitise skin, so prepare the solution and strips wearing gloves, avoid raising dust and wash hands afterwards. The solid readily takes up moisture from the air, so reseal the container quickly after weighing and keep it dry as the MSDS advises.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, an Ambala, Haryana company that supplies laboratory reagents such as cobalt chloride together with glassware and teaching apparatus to schools, colleges and distributors. For vendor registration, the supplying company is Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited (CIN U29309HR2020PTC087597, GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT). Read our company profile for more.

How do I make test papers from Cobalt Chloride?
To make test papers from Cobalt Chloride, soak filter-paper strips in a cobalt chloride solution, dry them until evenly blue, and store them in a desiccator or sealed container. Wear gloves throughout and handle the finished strips with dry forceps.

How much does one pack of Cobalt Chloride contain?
One pack of Cobalt Chloride contains 100 gm of analytical reagent grade material, supplied with its MSDS. Only a small amount is needed to impregnate a batch of paper strips, so plan the number of packs by the classes that will run the practical.

Is Cobalt Chloride safe for school practicals?
Cobalt Chloride can be used in school practicals with care: it is toxic if swallowed and can sensitise skin. Teachers should prepare the solution and papers wearing gloves, and students should handle only the finished strips, following the MSDS.

How long does Cobalt Chloride keep?
The shelf life of Cobalt Chloride depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Because the salt absorbs moisture from the air, reseal the container quickly and store it somewhere dry.

Who supplies Cobalt Chloride?
Cobalt Chloride is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies it to schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets, alongside the filter paper and glassware used for transpiration practicals.

Cobalt Chloride Paper (Product Code: SCL378/094) is an indicator test paper used to detect water in school and college practicals, most often to show the moisture given off by the upper and lower surfaces of a leaf. It lets students watch transpiration happen without any instrument, which makes it a simple piece of plant biology lab equipment for botany classes. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Key Details

What Is Cobalt Chloride Paper Used For?

Cobalt chloride papers are conventionally blue when dry and turn pink on contact with water. In the familiar classroom use, a dry strip is placed on the upper surface of a leaf and another on the lower surface, both covered with glass slides and clipped; the strip that turns pink first marks the surface losing more water, usually the underside where stomata are more numerous. It is an inexpensive addition to a transpiration experiment kit in India's school biology rooms.

Students can also touch a strip to droplets collected under a bell jar, or to an unknown colourless liquid, to confirm it is water. For clear results keep unused strips in a closed container or desiccator, handle them with dry forceps rather than fingers, and compare colours against a fresh dry strip. Wash hands after handling and keep the papers away from younger children.

Copper Sulphate (Product Code: SCL379/095) is an analytical reagent grade copper salt used to provide the copper ions in sugar and protein test reagents and for crystal-growing work in school and college laboratories. It comes in a 500 gm pack with its MSDS, suiting departments that make up their own biuret or Fehling's solutions and run copper sulphate crystal school projects. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Copper Sulphate Used For?

Laboratories that prefer to make up their own test reagents use copper sulphate as the copper source: a dilute solution added to an alkaline protein sample gives the biuret test, and copper sulphate solution forms the "A" half of Fehling's solution. In chemistry-linked lessons, gently heating the blue hydrated salt in a china dish drives off its water of crystallisation and leaves a white powder that turns blue again when water is added, showing both dehydration and a chemical test for water.

Slow evaporation of a saturated solution produces well-formed blue crystals for crystallisation projects, which is why the salt is a stock item wherever chemistry lab equipment in India is bought alongside biology reagents. Copper sulphate is harmful if swallowed and irritating to eyes and skin, so use gloves and goggles, weigh it on a clean balance and collect concentrated waste instead of pouring it away.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, supplying reagents, glassware and teaching apparatus to schools, colleges and distributors. The company can quote copper sulphate together with the heating and weighing equipment used with it, so a practical list is priced in one go. Our company profile has further details.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I prepare biuret or Fehling's reagent from Copper Sulphate?
Yes, Copper Sulphate supplies the copper ions for both biuret reagent and Fehling's Solution A. The other components, such as the alkali, are needed separately, and ready-made versions of these reagents are also listed in our Biology Lab range.

What quantity does a pack of Copper Sulphate contain?
A pack of Copper Sulphate contains 500 gm of analytical reagent grade salt and comes with its MSDS. The quantity suits departments that prepare their own test reagents as well as run crystallisation and dehydration demonstrations.

Why does Copper Sulphate turn white when heated?
Copper Sulphate turns white when heated because heating drives off the water of crystallisation from the blue hydrated salt, leaving white anhydrous copper sulphate. Adding a few drops of water restores the blue colour, which also works as a simple test for water.

What safety precautions apply to Copper Sulphate?
Copper Sulphate is harmful if swallowed and irritates eyes and skin, so wear gloves and goggles when weighing or dissolving it. Collect copper-containing waste rather than pouring it down the drain, as copper salts are toxic to aquatic life; the MSDS gives full guidance.

How long does Copper Sulphate keep?
The shelf life of Copper Sulphate depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep the container closed in a cool, dry place between practicals.

Diastase (DNA Separation) (Product Code: SCL380/096) is an amylase enzyme preparation, supplied as an analytical reagent, used to break starch down into sugars in enzyme practicals in school and college biology labs. It comes in a 100 gm pack with its MSDS and is catalogued with the DNA separation enzymes, though its classic classroom role is the starch-digestion practical of an enzyme activity kit in biology. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Diastase Used For?

The standard practical mixes a starch solution with a diastase solution and removes drops at regular intervals onto iodine solution. At first the drops turn blue-black; as the enzyme digests the starch the colour weakens to brown and finally stays yellow-brown, showing that no starch remains. Testing the final mixture with Benedict's reagent then confirms that reducing sugar has been produced.

Repeating the run in tubes held at different temperatures or pH values turns it into an investigation of the factors affecting enzyme activity, a straightforward enzyme experiment kit school and first-year college classes can set up. Prepare the enzyme solution fresh on the day, never boil it unless you want a denatured control tube, and avoid breathing the powder, as enzyme dusts can cause sensitisation.

Supplier

Diastase is offered under ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited of Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies enzymes and reagents together with the glassware and indicators needed to use them, and can check your protocol with you before you order. Read more in our company profile.

• Benedicts Reagent (Test Of Glucose) — confirms the reducing sugar produced from starch
• Thermometer (Digital) — monitors water-bath temperatures in activity studies
• Test Tubes (With Rim) — separate tubes for each temperature or pH condition
• Watch Glass — holds iodine drops for quick sampling

Further reagents and apparatus are in the Biology Lab range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Diastase (DNA Separation) do?
Diastase (DNA Separation) is an amylase: it hydrolyses starch into smaller sugars such as maltose. That is why starch gradually disappears from a mixture containing it, which students can follow with iodine solution during the practical.

How can students tell Diastase (DNA Separation) is working?
Students can tell Diastase (DNA Separation) is working when samples tested with iodine change from blue-black towards yellow-brown as starch is used up. A positive Benedict's test on the final mixture then confirms that reducing sugar has been produced.

Is Diastase (DNA Separation) suitable for DNA separation work?
Diastase (DNA Separation) is catalogued with the enzymes for DNA separation practicals, but diastase itself acts on starch. Please contact us with your protocol so we can confirm it suits your experiment before you place an order.

How much Diastase (DNA Separation) is in a pack?

Distilled Water (Product Code: SCL381/097) is water purified by distillation, supplied as an analytical reagent and used to prepare solutions, dilute stains and rinse glassware in school, college and research laboratories. The 5 Litres pack comes with an MSDS, and because distillation removes the dissolved salts and chlorine found in tap water, it is a basic consumable for any biology lab setup in Indian schools. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Distilled Water Used For?

Almost every wet practical starts with distilled water: dissolving solid reagents such as salts, sugars and enzymes; diluting stains before staining onion peel or cheek cells; mounting specimens on slides; and giving glassware a final rinse so that no tap-water residue interferes with the next test. It also serves as the control liquid in many experiments, for example as the hypotonic medium in potato-strip or raisin practicals, where it forms part of an osmosis experiment kit school classes use alongside sugar or salt solutions.

To keep it clean, pour what you need into a beaker or wash bottle rather than dipping pipettes into the container, never return unused water to the stock, and keep the cap closed so the water does not absorb carbon dioxide and dust from the air. Rinse pH-meter electrodes with it between readings to avoid carry-over from one sample to the next.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, based in Ambala, Haryana, India, which supplies consumables such as distilled water together with reagents and glassware to teaching laboratories. Institutions adding the company as a vendor can note GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT, and export consignments are handled under Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A (DGFT). Visit our company profile for more.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much water is in one pack of Distilled Water?
One pack of Distilled Water holds 5 Litres of analytical reagent grade water and is supplied with an MSDS. Plan the number of packs by how many practical sessions need fresh solutions, stain dilutions and glassware rinsing each week.

Why use Distilled Water instead of tap water?
Distilled Water is used instead of tap water because tap water carries dissolved salts, chlorine and other substances that can cloud reagents, react with test chemicals and leave spots on slides. Distillation removes these interferences, giving cleaner and more repeatable results.

Is a purity or conductivity value specified for Distilled Water?
No conductivity figure is quoted for this Distilled Water; the listing states analytical reagent grade. If your work needs a specific purity or conductivity value, please contact us before ordering so we can advise on what can be confirmed.

Ethanol (Product Code: SCL382/098) is an analytical reagent grade alcohol used to remove chlorophyll from leaves before the iodine starch test, precipitate DNA and dehydrate stained tissue in school and college biology practicals. Supplied in a 500 ml pack with its MSDS, it is a standard reagent in the photosynthesis experiment kit India's secondary schools and botany departments rely on. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Ethanol Used For?

In the test for starch in a leaf, the leaf is first softened in boiling water, then placed in a tube of ethanol standing in the hot water bath until the green pigment dissolves out; after rinsing, iodine solution shows which parts of the leaf made starch. In DNA isolation, ice-cold ethanol poured gently onto the extract makes DNA come out of solution as white threads. For permanent slides, ethanol diluted with distilled water into a graded series gradually removes water from stained sections, pairing naturally with the stains of a staining kit for the biology lab in India.

Ethanol is highly flammable: never heat it directly over a flame, switch off burners before opening the bottle, and warm it only in a water bath heated beforehand. Keep the bottle tightly capped, away from heat and sunlight, preferably in a flammables cabinet, and follow the supplied MSDS for spills.

Supplier

This reagent is supplied under ScienceLab, the brand of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, whose base is in Ambala, Haryana, India. The company serves educational and research laboratories with reagents, stains and apparatus, and confirms how flammable liquids will be packed for each delivery. Read about us on the company profile page.

Items used with ethanol in the starch test, DNA isolation and slide preparation:

• Iodine Sol — reveals starch once the leaf has been decolourised
• Beaker — holds the hot water bath for warming the ethanol tube safely
• Petri Dish — for spreading out the leaf during the iodine test
• Icebox — keeps ethanol chilled for DNA precipitation
• Safranine (Plant Tissue) — a stain used before ethanol dehydration of plant sections

Explore more reagents in our Biology Lab range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is a leaf placed in Ethanol before the iodine test?
A leaf is placed in Ethanol before the iodine test because chlorophyll dissolves in it. Removing the green colour lets the blue-black starch-iodine reaction show clearly, so students can see exactly which parts of the leaf made starch.

Is it safe to heat Ethanol in class?
Ethanol should only be heated indirectly in class. It is highly flammable, so warm it in a tube standing in hot water that was heated beforehand, with all burners and flames switched off nearby, and follow the MSDS for spills.

What strength of Ethanol is supplied?
The Ethanol listing gives the grade as analytical reagent but does not state a percentage strength. If your protocol needs a particular concentration, for example for DNA precipitation, contact us to confirm before you order.

How much does a bottle of Ethanol contain?
A bottle of Ethanol contains 500 ml of analytical reagent grade alcohol and is supplied with its MSDS. For a graded dehydration series, the contents can be diluted with distilled water into several working strengths.

How long does Ethanol keep?
The shelf life of Ethanol depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Store the bottle tightly capped in a cool place away from ignition sources, ideally in a flammables cabinet.

Who supplies Ethanol?
Ethanol is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, which trades under the ScienceLab name from Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets can order it together with stains, iodine solution and glassware in a single quotation.

What should a quotation request for Ethanol include?

Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) (Product Code: SCL383/099) is the copper-containing half of Fehling's reagent, used with Fehling's Solution B to detect reducing sugars and, after acid hydrolysis, sucrose in school and college food-test practicals. It comes as an analytical reagent in a 500 ml pack with its MSDS, one half of the Fehling solution kit India's biology labs usually order as a pair. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Fehling's Solution A Used For?

Equal volumes of Solution A and Solution B are mixed in a test tube to give a deep blue working reagent, the sample is added and the tube is heated in a boiling water bath. A reducing sugar such as glucose converts the blue copper complex into a brick-red precipitate of copper(I) oxide. Sucrose, however, is a non-reducing sugar and leaves the mixture blue.

To test for sucrose, students first boil the sample with dilute hydrochloric acid to split it into glucose and fructose, neutralise the acid, and then repeat the Fehling's test; a red precipitate that appears only after hydrolysis points to sucrose. Running untreated and hydrolysed samples side by side, with glucose as a positive control, makes the comparison clear. Solution A contains copper salts, so wear goggles and gloves and collect waste rather than washing it away.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading name used by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, based in Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies test reagents such as this solution alongside the glassware and heating apparatus used with them, and quotes both halves of Fehling's reagent together on request. Our company profile has more information.

Related Biology Lab Products

What you need alongside Solution A for a complete sugar test:

• Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) — the essential partner solution, mixed with A just before use
• Sucrose — the non-reducing sugar for the hydrolysis comparison
• Hydrochloric Acid (Conc) — diluted, it hydrolyses sucrose before testing
• Glucose — the positive-control reducing sugar
• Test Tubes (With Rim) — for heating reagent and samples in a water bath

More reagents are listed in our Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) be used on its own?
No, Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) must be mixed with Fehling's Solution B immediately before use. Neither solution works as a sugar test alone; the blue working reagent forms only when the copper solution meets the alkaline tartrate solution.

How does Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) detect sucrose if sucrose is non-reducing?
Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) detects sucrose by comparison: an untreated sucrose sample stays blue, while the same sample boiled with dilute acid and neutralised gives a red precipitate, because hydrolysis releases the reducing sugars glucose and fructose.

Why are the two halves of Fehling's reagent kept separate?
The two halves are kept separate because mixed Fehling's reagent does not keep well. Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) and Solution B are therefore stored in their own bottles and combined fresh, in equal volumes, for each practical session.

How much solution does a pack of Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) contain?
A pack of Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) contains 500 ml of analytical reagent grade solution with its MSDS. Order the same volume of Solution B, since the two halves are mixed in equal parts for every test.

How long does Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) keep?
The shelf life of Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep the bottle capped and store it as the MSDS advises.

Who supplies Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose)?
Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets can order it with Solution B, sugars and test tubes in one quotation.

Should Solution B be ordered with Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose)?
Yes, order Solution B with Fehling's Sol A (Test Of Sucrose) if you do not already have it. Add both to the enquiry cart, quoting code SCL383/099 for Solution A, so the pair is priced and dispatched together.

Last updated: 24 September 2026

Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) (Product Code: SCL384/0100) is the alkaline half of Fehling's reagent, used with Fehling's Solution A to test for reducing sugars and, after hydrolysis, sucrose in school and college laboratories. Packed as 500 ml of analytical reagent with its MSDS, it provides the alkali and tartrate that hold copper in solution during the test. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a chemistry consumables supplier in India for schools and colleges.

Specifications

What Is Fehling's Solution B Used For?

Fehling's Solution B is conventionally an alkaline solution of potassium sodium tartrate (Rochelle salt). On its own it is colourless and does nothing visible; its job begins when it meets Solution A. The tartrate binds the copper ions into a soluble deep-blue complex, and the alkali creates the conditions in which a reducing sugar can reduce that copper to red copper(I) oxide on heating. Students measure out matching volumes of A and B, mix them fresh, add the sample and heat.

Because Solution B is strongly alkaline, it is the more hazardous of the pair to handle: wear goggles and gloves, and rinse any splash with plenty of water. Keep the bottle tightly closed so the alkali does not absorb carbon dioxide, and prefer a plastic or rubber closure, since alkaline solutions can make ground-glass stoppers seize. It belongs on the reagent shelf of school chemistry lab equipment in India used for food and sugar testing.

Supplier

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, operating under the ScienceLab brand, is based in Ambala, Haryana, India, and supplies reagents and teaching apparatus to educational laboratories. Food-test reagents such as this solution can be quoted together with the sugars and glassware used alongside them. You can read more on our company profile page.

• Sucrose — tested before and after hydrolysis to show the difference
• Measuring Cylinder — measures matching volumes of Solutions A and B
• Reagent Stand — keeps the A and B bottles together on the bench

See our Biology Lab range for other reagents and apparatus.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) do in the test?
Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) supplies the alkali and the tartrate. The tartrate keeps copper from Solution A dissolved as a deep-blue complex, and the alkaline conditions allow reducing sugars to reduce that copper to a red precipitate when heated.

Is Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) hazardous?
Yes, Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) is strongly alkaline and can damage skin and eyes, making it the more hazardous half of the pair. Use goggles and gloves, rinse splashes with plenty of water and follow the MSDS supplied with the pack.

How is Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) different from Benedict's reagent?
Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) is one of two separately stored solutions, whereas Benedict's reagent is a single, milder solution. Both detect reducing sugars, but Fehling's needs Solutions A and B mixed fresh in equal volumes for each test.

Which sugars give a positive result with Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose)?
Mixed with Solution A, Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) gives a positive result with reducing sugars such as glucose, fructose, maltose and lactose. Sucrose reacts only after it has been hydrolysed with dilute acid and the acid neutralised.

How long does Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) keep?
The shelf life of Fehling's SOL B (TEST OF Sucrose) depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep it tightly closed so the alkali does not absorb carbon dioxide.

Fructose (Product Code: SCL385/0101) is an analytical reagent grade fruit sugar, a ketose, used as a known reducing-sugar sample for carbohydrate tests in school, college and university biology laboratories. Packed as 500 gm with its MSDS, it lets students check their Benedict's or Fehling's technique on a reliable reference before testing unknown food extracts. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a laboratory chemicals supplier in India serving educational institutions.

Specifications

What Is Fructose Used For?

In the classic food-test practical, a fructose solution made up in distilled water is warmed with Benedict's or Fehling's solutions. Because fructose is a reducing sugar, a coloured precipitate forms, confirming that the reagents and heating step are working before students move on to fruit juice, honey or other samples. Fructose is also the usual positive sample for Seliwanoff's test, where ketoses develop a red colour faster than aldoses such as glucose, making it a useful teaching pair with glucose.

For day-to-day handling in school biology lab equipment setups in India, take out small portions with a clean, dry spatula and close the container straight away, as sugars readily absorb moisture and cake. Prepare sugar solutions fresh for each session and label them clearly, since stored sugar solutions can support mould or bacterial growth that spoils results.

Glucose (Product Code: SCL386/0102) is an analytical reagent grade sugar used as the reference reducing sugar and positive control in Benedict's and Fehling's food tests in school and college biology practicals. Supplied in a 500 gm pack with its MSDS, a freshly made glucose solution gives students a dependable positive result against which to judge unknown samples. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a biology lab equipment supplier in India that also provides practical reagents.

Specifications

What Is Glucose Used For?

Teachers prepare a small set of glucose solutions of increasing strength and heat each with Benedict solution; in school labs across India this is the standard way to show the green, yellow, orange and brick-red colour series that makes Benedict's test semi-quantitative. Running glucose next to a non-reducing sugar such as sucrose also shows students why some sugars need to be hydrolysed before they give a positive result.

Beyond food tests, glucose is the usual substrate in yeast fermentation and respiration demonstrations and is used to make solutions for osmosis experiments across a semi-permeable membrane. Weigh it on a clean balance pan or weighing paper, dissolve it in distilled water, and discard leftover solution at the end of the session rather than storing it, since sugar solutions readily grow mould.

Supplier

Glucose is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab from Ambala in Haryana, India. Alongside its teaching apparatus, the company supplies the everyday reagents schools and colleges need to run their practical syllabus, so sugars, test reagents and glassware can come from one vendor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Glucose used as the control in Benedict's test?
Glucose is used as the control in Benedict's test because it is a reducing sugar that reliably gives a positive result. It confirms that the reagent and heating step are working before students judge the colour changes in unknown samples.

What pack size and grade of Glucose is offered?
Glucose is offered in a 500 gm pack of analytical reagent grade, supplied with its MSDS. Only a little sugar is dissolved for each set of food tests, so a single pack serves many practical sessions.

Is this Glucose the same as glucose sold for food or drinks?
No, this Glucose is a laboratory reagent intended for practical work, not a food product. It should not be eaten or used in food preparation, and it should be stored with other laboratory chemicals rather than in a kitchen or canteen.

Can Glucose be used for yeast fermentation experiments?
Yes, Glucose is the common sugar source for demonstrating fermentation and respiration by yeast, where the carbon dioxide released can be tested with lime water. The yeast and apparatus are ordered separately from this 500 gm pack.

How long does Glucose keep?
The shelf life of Glucose depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Store the pack sealed and dry, as the MSDS advises, and make solutions fresh for each session.

Glycerine (Product Code: SCL387/0103) is an analytical reagent grade glycerol used mainly as a mounting liquid for temporary slides in school and college biology laboratories. Packed as 500 gm with its MSDS, a drop under the coverslip stops thin sections of stem, root or leaf drying out while students draw and label them, a routine item in any temporary slides biology kit. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Glycerine Used For?

In anatomy practicals, students cut thin transverse sections, stain them in a watch glass with safranin or a similar stain, and transfer the best section to a clean slide with a fine brush. A drop of glycerine is placed on the section before the coverslip is lowered at an angle to avoid air bubbles. The glycerine keeps the tissue moist and slightly clearer, so the slide can be examined for the whole period instead of drying within minutes, which is why it pairs with every staining kit biology lab teachers in India use for the senior secondary syllabus.

Glycerine also has quieter uses around the prep room: a light smear helps glass tubing or thermometers slide into rubber corks and stoppers with less risk of breakage. Because it absorbs moisture from the air, keep the container capped between uses and dispense it into small dropper bottles for student benches.

Supplier

ScienceLab is the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, an Ambala, Haryana company that supplies reagents such as glycerine, together with slides, coverslips and stains, to schools, colleges and distributors. Our company profile describes the business and its range.

Related Biology Lab Products

Items used alongside glycerine when preparing temporary mounts:

• Plain Slides — the glass base on which the section is mounted in glycerine
• Coverslips — placed over the glycerine drop to complete the mount
• Safranine (Plant Tissue) — stain applied to plant sections before mounting
• Watch Glass — shallow dish for staining and rinsing sections
• Brush — for lifting thin sections without tearing them

Further stains, slides and reagents are listed in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Glycerine used for temporary slides instead of water?
Glycerine is used for temporary slides because it does not evaporate like water under the warmth of a microscope lamp. It keeps the section hydrated and slightly clearer, so students can examine and draw it for the whole practical period.

How much Glycerine is in one pack?
Each pack of Glycerine holds 500 gm of analytical reagent grade glycerol and comes with an MSDS. Decant small amounts into dropper bottles for student benches so the stock container stays clean and closed.

Should Glycerine be diluted before mounting?
Glycerine is often diluted with distilled water for mounting in school protocols. Follow the ratio given in your practical manual when preparing the mounting mixture, and label the diluted bottle clearly with its contents and date.

Can Glycerine be used to fit glass tubes into rubber corks?
Yes, a thin film of Glycerine acts as a lubricant when fitting glass tubing or thermometers into rubber corks and stoppers. Wipe off the excess afterwards, and always protect your hands with a cloth when pushing glass into a stopper.

How long does Glycerine keep?
The shelf life of Glycerine depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep it tightly closed in a cool place, since glycerine draws in moisture from the air if left open.

Who supplies Glycerine?
Glycerine is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, known as ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets, and can quote it together with slides, coverslips and stains for section-cutting practicals.

It comes in a 500 ml bottle with its MSDS and belongs in the locked chemistry reagent cabinet India's school laboratories keep for acids. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Concentrated Hydrochloric Acid Used For?

For the mitosis practical, freshly grown onion root tips are warmed briefly in dilute hydrochloric acid, which breaks down the material holding the cells together. The softened tips are then stained with acetocarmine in a watch glass and gently squashed under a coverslip so that individual dividing cells can be seen. Dilute acid is also used to hydrolyse sucrose before a Benedict's or Fehling's test, showing students that a non-reducing sugar gives a positive result once it has been split into simpler sugars.

Concentrated acid should be opened and diluted only by a teacher or lab assistant, ideally in the fume cupboard a school in India sets aside for acids, wearing goggles and gloves. Always add the acid slowly to water, never water to acid, and use the strength given in your practical manual. Between sessions, keep the bottle tightly closed, apart from alkalis and oxidising chemicals, as the MSDS describes.

Iodine Sol (Product Code: SCL390/0105) is an analytical reagent grade iodine solution used to test for starch in food tests, leaf experiments and enzyme practicals in school and college biology labs. Added to a sample it turns blue-black where starch is present and stays yellow-brown where it is absent; the 500 ml pack comes with its MSDS. This iodine solution for lab use in India is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Iodine Solution Used For?

The simplest use is the food test: a few drops on a slice of potato, bread or a starch suspension give an immediate blue-black colour. The same reagent becomes a timing tool in enzyme work, where students mix starch with diastase or saliva and place drops of the mixture into iodine at regular intervals, recording when the blue-black colour no longer appears. Because it is so central to these digestion experiments, iodine is a core part of any enzyme activity kit in biology.

In photosynthesis lessons, a leaf that has been kept in light is boiled, decolourised in alcohol and then flooded with iodine to show where starch has formed. Diluted iodine also makes starch grains in potato cells easy to see on a slide under the microscope. Dispense small volumes into dropping bottles for the benches and keep the stock bottle closed and away from strong light.

Visit the Biology Lab category for more reagents and practical supplies.

Frequently Asked Questions

What colour does Iodine Sol give for a positive starch test?
Iodine Sol gives a blue-black colour when starch is present. If the solution stays yellow-brown, starch is absent or has been fully digested, which is how students read both simple food tests and enzyme experiments.

Is Iodine Sol the same as Lugol's iodine?
The formulation of Iodine Sol is not detailed on this page, so it should not be assumed to be Lugol's iodine. If your practical requires a particular formulation, please check with us through the contact page before ordering.

Can Iodine Sol be used to time starch digestion by enzymes?
Yes, Iodine Sol is the usual way to time starch digestion. Drops of the starch and enzyme mixture are tested in iodine at set intervals, and the time at which the blue-black colour stops appearing shows how fast digestion proceeds.

Will Iodine Sol stain hands and benches?
Yes, Iodine Sol can stain skin, clothing and wooden surfaces. Wear gloves, work over a tray and wipe up drips promptly as advised in the MSDS; dispensing into small dropping bottles also reduces spills on student benches.

How long does Iodine Sol keep?
The shelf life of Iodine Sol depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep the 500 ml bottle tightly closed in a cool, dark place, as iodine solutions are affected by light and air.

Lime Water (Product Code: SCL392/0106) is a clear calcium hydroxide solution, listed as an analytical reagent, used to detect carbon dioxide in respiration, fermentation and exhaled-air experiments in biology and general science classes. It turns milky when the gas is bubbled through it, and each 500 ml pack comes with its MSDS. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, alongside the plant biology lab equipment used in respiration studies.

Specifications

What Is Lime Water Used For?

The best-known demonstration compares inhaled and exhaled air: two tubes of lime water are connected so that a student breathes in through one and out through the other, and only the exhaled-air tube turns milky. The same test appears in experiments on germinating seeds, respiring plant material kept in the dark and yeast fermenting sugar, where the gas given off is led through lime water to prove it is carbon dioxide. These experiments are standard in any biology experiment kit students use from middle school onward.

Lime water reacts slowly with carbon dioxide in the air, so keep the bottle firmly stoppered and pour out only what the lesson needs. Check that the stock is clear before class, since a stale, cloudy solution gives misleading results. When blowing through tubes, students should breathe out gently and never suck liquid back towards the mouth.

Supplier

Lime Water is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which operates under the ScienceLab brand from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company supplies consumable reagents together with respiration apparatus and glassware, so institutions can source a complete practical from one vendor. Read more in our company profile.

Respiration and gas-testing items often ordered with lime water:

• Respiration Apparatus — for respiration experiments where carbon dioxide output is tested
• Kit for Demonstrating Seed Respiration in Germination — studies the gas released by germinating seeds
• Kit for Demonstrating Plant Respiration — a companion experiment on respiration in green plants
• Test Tubes (With Rim) — for holding lime water while gas is bubbled through
• Calcium Hydroxide — for labs that prefer to make up lime water themselves

Browse our Biology Lab category for more reagents and physiology apparatus.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Lime Water turn milky with carbon dioxide?
Lime Water turns milky because carbon dioxide reacts with the dissolved calcium hydroxide to form calcium carbonate. Calcium carbonate is insoluble, so it appears as a fine white suspension that students can see clearly against a dark background.

Why did the milkiness in Lime Water disappear when we kept bubbling gas?
With excess carbon dioxide, the calcium carbonate in Lime Water converts to soluble calcium hydrogen carbonate and the liquid clears again. Stop bubbling as soon as the milkiness appears if you only need a positive result.

The Lime Water stock looks slightly cloudy. Can it still be used?
Slight cloudiness in Lime Water usually means it has absorbed carbon dioxide from the air. Let it settle or filter off the clear liquid, keep the bottle closed, and check it with exhaled air before the class if in doubt.

What does one pack of Lime Water contain?
One pack of Lime Water contains 500 ml of solution listed as analytical reagent, supplied with its MSDS. Pour out only what each lesson needs so the remaining stock is exposed to air as little as possible.

How long does Lime Water keep?
The shelf life of Lime Water depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted. Keep it firmly stoppered, because contact with air slowly turns it cloudy.

Is Lime Water safe for student use?
Lime Water can be used by students with basic care: it is an alkaline solution that can irritate eyes and skin, so goggles should be worn and splashes washed off. When blowing through tubes, students must never suck liquid back.

Who supplies Lime Water?
Lime Water is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd, trading as ScienceLab, from Ambala, Haryana, India. Schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets can request it with code SCL392/0106 alongside respiration kits and test tubes.

Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation) (Product Code: SCL394/0107) is a fat-digesting enzyme used to break down the lipid membranes of cells and nuclei in classroom DNA separation and enzyme practicals. Biology teachers putting together a DNA extraction kit for school labs in India order it in a 250 g pack of analytical reagent grade, supplied with its MSDS. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Lipase Enzyme Used For?

In a DNA separation practical, tissue is first broken up so that the cell and nuclear membranes can be opened. These membranes are rich in lipids, and lipase can be added to the extraction mixture to help digest them, often alongside a protease to remove proteins and a cellulase for plant cell walls. Once the cell contents are released and filtered, chilled ethanol is layered on top so that DNA separates out as fine white strands that students can spool onto a glass rod.

Lipase also earns its place in an enzyme experiment kit for school digestion lessons: added to milk or another fat emulsion with a suitable pH indicator, it produces fatty acids, and the resulting colour change shows the enzyme at work. Running tubes at different temperatures, or with boiled enzyme as a control, lets students explore how temperature affects enzyme activity. Weigh only what the class needs and close the container quickly to protect the rest of the pack from moisture.

Supplier

This enzyme is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India. The company sources reagents such as lipase so that schools, colleges and dealers can order a complete DNA or enzyme practical, glassware and consumables included, through a single enquiry. Read more on the company profile page.

Items that complete a classroom DNA separation or enzyme practical:

• DNA extraction lab kit — a packaged activity for extracting DNA in class
• Protease Enzyme (DNA Separation) — digests the proteins released along with DNA
• Cellulose Enzyme for DNA separation — listed for breaking down plant cell walls in the same practical
• Ethanol — chilled alcohol used to make the DNA separate out
• Enzyme Biotechnology Kit — for extending lessons into further enzyme experiments

More enzymes, reagents and glassware are available in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation) do in a DNA practical?
Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation) digests the lipids that make up cell and nuclear membranes, so the membranes open and DNA is released from plant or animal tissue into the extraction mixture, ready to be filtered and precipitated with chilled alcohol.

Is Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation) enough on its own to isolate DNA?
No. Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation) handles only the membrane-digestion step. A complete school DNA extraction also needs tissue preparation, a buffer or detergent mixture, usually a protease, filtration and chilled ethanol to make the DNA come out of solution.

How much Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation) is in one pack?
Each pack of Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation) contains 250 g of enzyme listed as analytical reagent grade, and it is supplied with an MSDS that gives handling, storage and first-aid information for the laboratory.

What is the shelf life of Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation)?
The shelf life of Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation) depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so no blanket period is quoted. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and keep the pack tightly closed in a cool, dry place.

Is an enzyme activity value stated for Lipase Enzyme (DNA Separation)?

Litmus Sol Red/Blue (Product Code: SCL397/0108) is a liquid litmus indicator used to classify test solutions as acidic, basic or neutral in school and college science labs. Listed as analytical reagent grade in a 500 ml pack, it is a standard part of any acid base indicator kit for middle-school chemistry and junior biology classes. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, together with an MSDS.

Specifications

What Is Litmus Solution Used For?

Students add litmus solution to everyday samples — lemon juice, vinegar, soap solution, baking soda solution, tap water — and record whether blue litmus turns red, red litmus turns blue, or neither changes. The liquid form suits these activities because it mixes evenly through a test tube of sample and gives a colour the whole group can see, whereas litmus paper school labs in India keep on hand is quicker for single spot checks. In biology lessons it shows that soil extracts, fruit juices or products of digestion are acidic or alkaline before more exact pH work.

Litmus shows only whether a sample is acidic or basic; it does not give a pH value. For that, follow up with a universal indicator or pH paper. Pour working amounts into dropper bottles, never return used indicator to the stock bottle, and rinse test tubes well so leftover acid or alkali does not change the next result.

What to Specify When Ordering

• Colour: red litmus solution, blue litmus solution, or both — and how many of each
• Number of 500 ml packs needed per lab or per school
• Whether red or blue litmus paper is also needed for spot tests in the same lesson
• Delivery location, so dispatch of the reagent can be confirmed for your order

Supplier

Litmus solution is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited under its trading name ScienceLab. From its base in Ambala, Haryana, the company supplies indicators and other reagents to schools and colleges, so a complete acid-base lesson can be ordered from one source. Our company profile has further details.

Indicators and small items used in the same acid-base activity:

• Red Litmus Paper — paper form for quick spot tests for alkalis
• Blue Litmus Paper — paper form for quick spot tests for acids
• Universal Indicator Sol — the next step when students need an approximate pH value
• Ph Paper — for estimating pH on the same samples
• Dropper — for adding litmus to samples a few drops at a time

Other indicators and reagents are in our Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Litmus Sol Red/Blue come as red, blue or both?
Litmus Sol Red/Blue is listed in both red and blue forms. State which colour you need, or how many 500 ml packs of each, when you enquire through the contact page, and the split will be confirmed in your quotation.

What colour changes does Litmus Sol Red/Blue show?
With Litmus Sol Red/Blue, acids turn blue litmus red, alkalis turn red litmus blue, and neutral samples leave both colours unchanged, which lets students sort everyday liquids such as vinegar, soap solution and tap water into three groups.

Can Litmus Sol Red/Blue measure the exact pH?
No. Litmus Sol Red/Blue only shows whether a sample is acidic or basic; it does not give a pH value. When students need an approximate pH, follow up with universal indicator solution or pH paper on the same samples.

When is Litmus Sol Red/Blue better than litmus paper?
Litmus Sol Red/Blue is better for test-tube demonstrations and larger sample volumes, because the colour spreads evenly and the whole group can see it. Litmus paper is quicker for single spot checks, so many school labs keep both forms.

What is the shelf life of Litmus Sol Red/Blue?
The shelf life of Litmus Sol Red/Blue depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so no fixed period is stated. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and keep the bottle closed and stored as the MSDS advises.

Who supplies Litmus Sol Red/Blue?
Litmus Sol Red/Blue is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India, to schools, colleges and distributors in India and international markets, usually alongside litmus papers, droppers and other indicators for the same lesson.

What details should a purchase request for Litmus Sol Red/Blue include?

Magnesium Sulphate (Product Code: SCL399/0109) is an analytical reagent salt used to supply magnesium and sulphur to plants when nutrient solutions are prepared in biology and botany laboratories. Botany teachers use the 500 g pack for water-culture and mineral-deficiency experiments, where leaving it out of one set of seedlings shows what happens when magnesium, part of the chlorophyll molecule, is missing. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, a lab chemicals supplier for schools and colleges.

Specifications

What Is Magnesium Sulphate Used For?

In a water-culture experiment, students grow seedlings in several containers: one with a complete nutrient solution and others each missing one mineral. Magnesium sulphate is one of the salts weighed out for the complete solution, and it is deliberately left out of the magnesium-deficient set. Over the following weeks, the older leaves of the deficient plants turn yellow between the veins, a clear visual lesson on why plants need magnesium to make chlorophyll.

Accuracy matters in these recipes, so weigh the salt on a balance, dissolve it completely in distilled water and label each stock bottle with its contents and date. Rinse all containers well, because traces of other salts can hide a deficiency symptom. Colleges that already use a biology lab equipment supplier in India for hydroponic trays and glassware can add this reagent to the same order.

Supplier

Magnesium Sulphate is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which trades as ScienceLab from Ambala, Haryana, India, and sources reagents for plant physiology and other biology practicals. For vendor registration, the supplying company is GST-registered (GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT) and handles export orders under Importer-Exporter Code AAECJ8618A issued by the DGFT.

Methyl Alcohol (Product Code: SCL402/0110) is an analytical reagent solvent, also known as methanol, used to fix blood, cheek-cell and bacterial smears on glass slides before staining in biology and pathology laboratories. Supplied in a 500 ml pack with its MSDS, it is a routine item in any staining kit for microbiology in India and also serves as a solvent in pigment extraction. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is Methyl Alcohol Used For?

After a smear has air-dried, a few drops of methyl alcohol are run over the slide, or the slide is dipped briefly in a staining jar of it, and then allowed to dry before the stain is applied. Fixing this way holds blood cells, epithelial cells or bacteria firmly to the glass and preserves their outlines, so they do not wash off when stains such as methylene blue or eosin are added. It is therefore a routine step in blood-smear practicals in college pathology, microbiology and zoology labs.

Methyl alcohol is highly flammable and toxic if swallowed, breathed in or absorbed through the skin, so staff should dispense it into small labelled bottles for each bench. Use it in a well-ventilated room, well away from spirit lamps and burners, wear gloves and goggles, and never substitute it for ethanol or spirit in protocols that do not call for methanol. Labs buying from a lab chemicals supplier in India usually order it together with stains and plain slides.

Supplier

Methyl Alcohol is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, the company behind the ScienceLab brand in Ambala, Haryana, India. It sources solvents, stains and slides so that institutions can run complete staining practicals from a single order. More about the company is on our company profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Methyl Alcohol used to fix smears before staining?
Methyl Alcohol fixes a smear by killing the cells and attaching them to the slide while keeping their structure intact, so blood cells, epithelial cells or bacteria are not rinsed away or distorted when stain and water are applied.

How long should a smear be fixed in Methyl Alcohol?
Fixing time in Methyl Alcohol varies between staining methods, so follow the time given in your own protocol or practical manual. Let the alcohol evaporate completely from the slide before any stain is applied.

Is Methyl Alcohol the same as ethanol or rectified spirit?
No. Methyl Alcohol (methanol) is a different and much more toxic alcohol than ethanol or rectified spirit. Use it only where a method specifies methanol, and keep it well away from food and drink.

What safety precautions does Methyl Alcohol need?
Methyl Alcohol is highly flammable and toxic, so work with good ventilation, keep flames away, wear gloves and eye protection, and store the bottle in a flammables cabinet. The MSDS supplied with the pack gives first-aid and spill instructions.

What does one pack of Methyl Alcohol contain?
One pack of Methyl Alcohol contains 500 ml of analytical reagent grade methanol together with its MSDS, which covers hazards, safe storage, first aid and disposal for school and college laboratories.

What is the shelf life of Methyl Alcohol?
The shelf life of Methyl Alcohol depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so no blanket period is given. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and keep the bottle tightly closed away from heat.

Who supplies Methyl Alcohol, and how is it delivered?
Methyl Alcohol is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, Haryana, India. Because it is a flammable liquid, transport is arranged under hazardous-goods rules and confirmed per order; share your delivery location through the contact page.

Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) (Product Code: SCL403/0111) is the protein-test reagent more commonly spelled Millon's reagent, used to detect tyrosine-containing proteins in school and college biology practicals. Supplied as an analytical reagent in a 125 ml pack, it gives senior secondary and college students a second, more specific protein test to set beside the biuret test. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, with an MSDS.

Specifications

What Is Millon's Reagent Used For?

A few drops of the reagent are added to a small volume of protein solution, such as diluted egg white or milk, in a test tube. A precipitate forms, and on gentle warming it turns red, confirming a tyrosine-containing protein. Comparing egg albumin with gelatin, which contains very little tyrosine and reacts only weakly, helps students see that different protein tests detect different chemical features. Because only a few drops are needed per tube, one pack covers many practical groups, making it a sensible addition to the biology lab equipment schools in India use for biomolecule tests.

Millon's-type reagents are traditionally prepared from heavy-metal salts in acid, so check the MSDS supplied with this pack for its composition, hazards and disposal advice. The heating step is best done by the teacher or in a chemical fume cupboard, with goggles and gloves, and all used tube contents should be collected in a labelled waste container rather than poured down the sink.

Supplier

This reagent is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, which is known in the market as ScienceLab. Based in Ambala, Haryana, India, the company sources biomolecule-test reagents so that a complete practical on proteins, carbohydrates and fats can be ordered in one go.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) the same as Millon's reagent?
Yes. Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) is the reagent used in Millon's test for proteins; "Million's" is simply the spelling used in the product name on this site, and enquiries under either spelling refer to the same item.

What does a positive result with Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) look like?
With Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins), a precipitate that turns red on gentle warming indicates a protein containing tyrosine. No red colour means tyrosine is absent or present only in traces, as with gelatin compared with egg albumin.

How is Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) different from the biuret test?
The biuret test responds to the peptide bonds present in all proteins, while Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) responds specifically to the amino acid tyrosine. Running both tests side by side gives students a fuller picture of a protein sample.

How much reagent is in one pack of Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins)?
Each pack of Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) holds 125 ml of analytical reagent grade reagent and includes an MSDS. Only a few drops are needed per test tube, so one pack covers many practical groups.

What is the shelf life of Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins)?
The shelf life of Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so no fixed period is quoted. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and store the bottle as the MSDS directs.

How should used Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) be disposed of?
Collect all used Million's Reagent (Test Of Proteins) and tube contents in a labelled waste container, and dispose of them according to the MSDS and local rules for hazardous chemical waste. Never pour the reagent or its reaction mixtures into the drain.

Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) (Product Code: SCL404/0112) is a ninhydrin solution used to reveal amino acids in spot tests and on paper chromatograms in biology and biochemistry labs. Listed as analytical reagent grade in a 125 ml pack, it develops a deep purple colour with free amino acids on warming, which makes it the developing reagent in a paper chromatography kit for school biochemistry. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, with an MSDS in each pack.

Specifications

What Is Ninhydrin Solution Used For?

In paper chromatography, students spot a mixture of amino acids, or a digested protein sample, on chromatography paper and run it in a solvent inside a closed jar. Once the paper is dry, it is sprayed or dipped in ninhydrin and gently warmed; purple spots appear where each amino acid has travelled, so students can measure distances and calculate Rf values. As a simple tube test, a few drops added to a sample and heated in a water bath show whether amino acids are present, which is handy for demonstrating that a protease has broken a protein down.

Ninhydrin reacts with the amino acids in skin, so it will leave purple stains on fingers; wear gloves and handle chromatograms by the edges. Spray only in a ventilated area, keep the bottle closed when not in use and check the MSDS for the solvent and any flammability warnings. Labs ordering from a chemistry consumables supplier in India usually buy it together with chromatography paper and jars.

Supplier

Ninhydrin solution is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab and located in Ambala, Haryana, India. The company sources reagents for biology and chemistry practicals, so chromatography paper, jars and developing reagents can be ordered together. See our company profile for more.

More biomolecule reagents are listed in the Biology Lab category.

Frequently Asked Questions

What colour does Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) give with amino acids?
Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) gives a purple to blue-violet colour with most amino acids after warming. A few, such as proline, give a yellow colour instead, which students can note when identifying spots on a chromatogram.

Does Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) detect whole proteins?
Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) reacts mainly with free amino groups, so it is most useful for amino acids and digested protein samples. For intact proteins, the biuret test is the more suitable classroom test.

Is Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) ready to spray on chromatograms?
Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) is supplied as a solution in a 125 ml pack. Whether to use it directly or dilute it depends on your method, so follow your practical manual and the MSDS supplied with the pack.

Why does Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) stain fingers purple?
Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) reacts with the amino acids naturally present on skin, leaving purple marks that fade over a few days. Wearing gloves and handling chromatograms only by their edges prevents both stained fingers and stray spots.

What is the shelf life of Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids)?
The shelf life of Ninhydrin Sol (Test Of Amino Acids) depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions, so no fixed period is quoted. Ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted, and store it tightly closed away from heat and light.

Nitric Acid (Conc) (Product Code: SCL406/0113) is concentrated nitric acid of analytical reagent grade used for the xanthoproteic protein test and other staff-supervised tests in biology and chemistry laboratories. School and college departments stock it in a 500 ml pack with an MSDS, mainly to show students that proteins containing ring-structured amino acids turn yellow with the acid. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to school chemistry and biology labs.

Specifications

What Is Concentrated Nitric Acid Used For?

For the xanthoproteic test, the teacher adds a small amount of concentrated nitric acid to egg-white solution in a test tube and warms it gently; a yellow colour develops. After cooling, adding an alkali such as ammonia solution deepens the colour to orange, completing the test. Students often recognise the same reaction from the yellow marks nitric acid leaves on skin, which is itself a protein reaction and a reminder of why gloves and care are needed.

Concentrated nitric acid is a strong oxidising acid that gives off irritating fumes, so it should be opened and dispensed only by teachers or trained staff in a fume cupboard, with goggles, face protection and an apron. Store the bottle upright in a cool, dark acid cabinet, separate from alcohols, organic materials and other reactive chemicals. Keep neutralising spill materials ready and follow the MSDS for first aid and disposal.

Potassium Hydroxide (Pellets) (Product Code: SCL410/0115) is an analytical reagent grade alkali in pellet form, used in biology labs to absorb carbon dioxide in respiration and photosynthesis experiments. It comes in a 500 g pack supplied with an MSDS for safe handling. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India, to schools, colleges and biology departments.

Specifications

What Is Potassium Hydroxide Used For in Biology Experiments?

In a simple respirometer, germinating seeds or small invertebrates are sealed in a tube with a little potassium hydroxide solution, which absorbs the carbon dioxide they release; movement of a coloured drop along the capillary then shows how much oxygen the organisms take up. In Moll's half-leaf experiment, potassium hydroxide in the flask removes carbon dioxide from the air around part of a leaf, and a later starch test shows that photosynthesis stopped where carbon dioxide was absent.

Prepare only the amount of solution needed, keep it separated from living material with cotton wool or a gauze platform, and label it clearly as corrosive. Close the pellet container immediately after use, because potassium hydroxide absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from the air and loses strength. It is a standard reagent in a biology lab setup for schools in India.

Supplier

ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, sources Potassium Hydroxide (Pellets) for biology and chemistry departments and ships each pack with its MSDS. Biology teachers can order it together with lime water, distilled water and other practical items on one enquiry, for delivery in India or international markets.

Protease Enzyme (DNA Separation) (Product Code: SCL417/0118) is a protein-digesting enzyme used to strip proteins away from DNA in classroom DNA separation and enzyme practicals. Supplied in a 500 g pack of listed analytical reagent grade with an MSDS, it is a natural fit for any biotechnology lab kit in India built around DNA work. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India.

Specifications

What Is the Protease Enzyme Used For?

In a classroom DNA separation, crushed fruit, onion or cheek cells are mixed with a salt and detergent solution to open the cells. A small amount of protease is then stirred in and the mixture is left to stand, often in a warm water bath, while the enzyme digests the proteins that hold DNA in a tightly packed form. After filtering, chilled alcohol is poured gently down the side of the tube, and the freed DNA gathers at the boundary as a white, stringy mass that students can lift out.

Protease also makes a clear stand-alone demonstration of enzyme action. Added to a cloudy egg-white suspension or to milk, it gradually changes the protein, and students can confirm the breakdown by showing a weaker biuret result or a stronger ninhydrin result as digestion proceeds. Setting tubes at different temperatures and including a boiled-enzyme control turns the activity into a complete investigation, similar to those in an enzyme activity kit for biology classes.
