Product Description

Seed Bottles are specialized containers for plant seed collection and preservation in laboratories, manufactured from borosilicate glass 3.3. Featuring a conical design for easy collection, observation, and dispensing, with a ground glass stopper for effective moisture and pest protection, they are ideal for agricultural research, germplasm preservation, and teaching experiments.

Key Features

Borosilicate glass 3.3: ISO 3585 compliant, thermal shock resistant to 280°C, excellent chemical resistance
Conical design: Wide‑top, narrow‑bottom design facilitates easy seed collection, dispensing, and observation
High clarity: Pure, transparent glass allows easy observation of seed condition and quantity
Ground glass stopper: Precision‑ground fit ensures a tight seal, preventing moisture and pest ingress
Chemical resistant: Resistant to most preservation media

Quality Assurance

Every unit undergoes rigorous dimensional inspection, seal integrity testing, and visual examination to meet the high standards required in professional laboratories.

Note: Seed Bottles are designed for plant seed collection, preservation, and observation. Ensure the bottle is clean and dry before use. Seeds should be thoroughly dried before storage. Regular seal integrity checks are recommended for long‑term preservation.
