This Wheaton Boston round dropping bottle has an amber glass body, a ground glass stopper, and a dispensing drip tip. This dropping bottle is used to dispense liquids in a unit of a drop in a dropping motion. The soda-lime glass body resists heat, thermal expansion, and shock, and can be used for packaging some dry powders, and its amber color protects light-sensitive samples from ultra-violet (UV) rays. Its Boston round shape is used for applications that require a rounded body, short neck, and narrow mouth to store liquid samples, solvents, chemicals, and dry materials. The ground glass stopper seals the bottle to secure contents and help prevent spills and evaporation. A dispensing drip tip on the side of the stopper dispenses drops of liquid. This bottle meets United States Pharmacopeia (USP) Type III requirements for quality assurance. Lab bottles are used to store, hold, and mix liquids, powders, and other substances in a wide variety of scientific industries. Lab bottles have a more pronounced neck and shoulder than jars. Lab bottles are manufactured with a combination of characteristics in order to meet the demands of particular applications, such as for solution dispensing, mixing, and weighing, and use in centrifuge operations. They come in many shapes for specific applications, with a variety of mouth or nozzle shapes and sizes for specific use. Lab bottles are made from materials, such as glass (borosilicate or soda-lime) and an array of plastics, which are selected for chemical and thermal expansion resistance, transparency, and their adaptability in a variety of applications. Lab bottle interiors, caps, and lids are often lined with a protective material. Caps and lids help seal bottles to prevent solutions from spilling. The capacity refers to the fluid amount held by a lab bottle, and is commonly measured in milliliters (mL) and liters (l), and sometimes in ounces (oz). Lab bottles are suitable for use in chemistry and b
