Reagent Bottles

Intro | Challenges | Features

Introduction

The Reagent Bottles, also known as media bottles, are used to store chemicals in liquid or powder form. They are generally made up of glass or plastic. The first Reagent Bottles were manufactured by DURAN in the year 1972 and they are the pioneers of it.

The reagent bottles were primarily designed to store reagents but with the passage of time and its improved design, various other chemicals can be stored in these bottles. A reagent is a compound which when added to a system, causes a chemical reaction. The bottle has a narrow mouth opening on the top with a pouring ring. The sloping shoulders of the reagent bottles helps the liquid to flow smoothly.

Limited opening of the mouth of the bottle.
Difficulty in recognizing synthetic compounds.
Difficult to trace the manufacturing lot.
Unavailability of customization.
