The difference between wide mouth reagent bottle and narrow mouth reagent bottle
Reagent bottles are commonly used consumables in the fields of chemical experiments, clinical diagnosis, genetic testing, etc. The reagent bottles are rich in types, different in size and color, and can be divided into wide-mouth bottles and narrow-mouth bottles according to different bottle types. The difference between these two kinds of bottles is mainly Reflected in the following aspects.
1. Different shapes and uses
The wide-mouth reagent bottle has a large aperture and a relatively short bottleneck. It is used to hold solid reagents. The bottle mouth is large and easy to take. The neck of the narrow-necked reagent bottle is longer and thinner, which is used to store liquid reagents. The small mouth of the bottle is not easy to spill, and it can also avoid the volatilization of liquid reagents.
2. Different precautions for use
Wide-mouth reagent bottles cannot be used for heating. To prevent contamination of reagents, the bottle caps should be placed upside down on the table. In addition, the bottle cap cannot be wrongly capped. If the size is not appropriate, the reagents are likely to deteriorate.
The narrow-necked reagent bottle cannot be used for heating either. The liquid in the bottle is easily contaminated by the external environment and deteriorates. Therefore, be careful when taking the liquid. The bottle cap should be placed on the table top after removal. If the reagent in the narrow-necked bottle is contaminated, then the bottle of liquid is useless. The label should be flushed out when placed, and the label should be flushed to the palm of the hand when dumping, so that the remaining liquid will not corrode the label.
Although both wide-mouth bottles and narrow-mouth bottles belong to a kind of reagent bottle, the appearance and purpose are quite different, and the precautions in use are also different. When purchasing, you should start with the specific purpose, make strict classification, and select the appropriate reagent bottle.
