Cork
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.

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.

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
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
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Material | Cellulose |
| Shape | Rectangular |
| Filter type | General qualitative filter for less critical routine analysis |
| Retention | Retains medium-fine precipitates |
| Filtration speed | Relatively slow |
| Surface | Smooth surface and close texture |
| Applications | From filtration of beverages to purification of electroplating baths |
| Used in | Industrial laboratories and students' laboratories for routine filtration |
| Product code | SCL303/051 |
| Supplied by | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India |
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.

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?

Meter Scale
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
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Meter scale |

| Finish | Clear lacquer |
| Purpose | Teaching tool as well as measuring tool |
| Suitable for | Classroom use and an array of other uses |
| Design | Durable, effective hand tool |
| Product code | SCL308/054 |
| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
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.

Parchment Paper (Semi Permeable)
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
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Type | Semi-permeable parchment paper |
| Supplied as | Book of 100 leaves |
| Purpose | Osmosis testing |
| Product code | SCL310/055 |
| Supplied by | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, India |
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
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
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Diameter | 4 inches |
| Material | Porcelain |
| Colour | White |
| Outer surface | Glazed |
| Inner surface | Rough |
| Chemical resistance | Chemical resistant |
| Product code | SCL311/056 |
| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
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.

| Product code | SCL315/057 |
| Manufacturer | Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) — OEM |
| Country of origin | India (made in Ambala, Haryana) |
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. Repeat orders to replace breakages are handled by the manufacturer itself; just ask us. Our company profile has more.

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.

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.
