BOD Bottle 300ml
Product Code : SCL-LG-12003
BOD Bottle 300ml (SKU SCL-LG-12003) is a sample bottle of 300 ml nominal capacity for biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) and dissolved oxygen (DO) tests on water and wastewater. Environmental and water-testing laboratories, civil and environmental engineering departments and university research groups use it to hold samples through incubation and analysis. Science Lab Supplies provides the bottle from Ambala, India to colleges, testing laboratories, institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The defining figure is the 300 ml nominal volume, the size widely used in standard BOD procedures. The bottle is filled to the brim and closed so that no air bubble is trapped over the sample. Material, stopper type and dimensions are not listed for this item and are confirmed with your quotation.

Applications and Experiments for the BOD Bottle
In a BOD test, paired bottles are filled with the same diluted sample: dissolved oxygen is measured in one at once and in the other after incubation, and the difference shows how much oxygen microbes consumed. The BOD bottle is therefore central to any water or wastewater quality practical.
- B.Tech civil and environmental engineering: BOD and DO determination in the environmental engineering laboratory.
- B.Sc. and M.Sc. environmental science, chemistry and microbiology: water-pollution practicals.
- Diploma and ITI water-treatment training: routine effluent and treated-water checks.
- Municipal and industrial testing labs: monitoring of rivers, lakes and effluent discharge.
Fill slowly to avoid turbulence, check for bubbles before closing, and treat wastewater samples as potentially contaminated, with gloves and the reagent precautions of your test method.
Standard Scope of Supply
The listing covers one BOD bottle of 300 ml nominal capacity. Whether a stopper, numbering or other accessory comes with it is not stated here, so the supplied components are written on your quotation. Reagents and incubation equipment are not part of this item.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Testing laboratories usually need BOD bottles in batches, but a quotation can be made for a small trial quantity as well. Each quote sets out packing, delivery time and price for the number you request, and burettes, pipettes and flasks for the DO titration can be added.
Science Lab Supplies has an Importer-Exporter Code and is able to ship to buyers in Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam and Malaysia. For a price, write through the contact page, place the bottles in the enquiry cart, or see the lab tender page for departmental tenders.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why must air bubbles be kept out of a BOD bottle?
A trapped bubble adds oxygen to the sample and changes the dissolved oxygen reading, which distorts the BOD result. Fill the bottle completely and close it without trapping air.
Why is 300 ml the usual size?
Standard BOD and DO procedures are written around a 300 ml bottle, so reagent volumes and calculations match it directly. Always follow the volume stated in the method you use.
Does the bottle include a stopper, and what is it made of?
Neither the closure nor the material is stated in this listing. Ask through the contact page and the quotation will specify both before you order.
Who supplies the BOD Bottle 300ml?
The bottle is supplied by Science Lab Supplies, Ambala, Haryana, India, which quotes testing laboratories, colleges and distributors directly for single cartons or larger batches.
