Wheaton BOD Bottle 227667 300 mL

Wheaton BOD Bottle 300 mL – Black PVC Coated (227667)

Product Description

Wheaton BOD Bottle 227667 with 300 mL capacity is specifically designed for water-quality and environmental testing where light exclusion is critical. Manufactured from USP Type I borosilicate glass, this bottle offers excellent chemical resistance and thermal stability for reliable laboratory use. The external black PVC coating effectively blocks visible light penetration up to approximately 800 nm, making it ideal for dark-bottle or light-versus-dark comparative testing such as Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) analysis. This design helps prevent photosynthetic oxygen production during incubation, ensuring accurate and reproducible test results in sensitive analytical procedures.
