Root Pressure Demonstration Kit.
Product Code : SCL-BLE-11622
Root Pressure Demonstration Kit. (SKU SCL-BLE-11622) is a panel-mounted glass set built around a three-bulb glass tube, rubber stoppers, a calibrated capillary tube and plastic syringes, used to measure and collect the gas given off by aquatic plants during photosynthesis. It suits Class 10 and Class 11 biology and B.Sc. plant physiology practicals. For schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors, the root pressure kit is available through Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India.
Specifications
Each component of this panel-mounted gas apparatus has its own row below. In short, a three-bulb glass tube and a glass tube with three holes fit rubber stoppers with single holes, and the gas collected is read on a calibrated capillary tube and drawn off with plastic syringes, all mounted on a plastic panel.

Applications and Experiments for the Root Pressure Demonstration Kit
Despite its name, this kit is a photosynthesis gas apparatus: an aquatic plant releases gas in light, the volume is read on the calibrated capillary, and samples are drawn off by syringe for testing. It supports photosynthesis practicals in NCERT Class 10 and Class 11 biology and B.Sc. plant physiology.
- Class 10 biology: showing that green plants give off gas during photosynthesis, with water plants kept in Test Tubes before the experiment.
- Class 11 biology: measuring how much gas is produced at different light intensities or distances from a lamp.
- B.Sc. plant physiology: drawing off collected gas for analysis, with spare Rubber Stoppers of Various Diameters with Holes for alternative set-ups.
Standard Scope of Supply
The kit is supplied with a three-bulb glass tube, a glass tube with three holes, one-hole rubber stoppers, a calibrated capillary tube and plastic syringes, mounted on a plastic panel. Aquatic plants, a light source and any reagents for testing the gas are not included.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations can be issued for one kit or for several identical kits for practical groups. The price for that quantity is stated together with the packing and the delivery time, and further photosynthesis or plant physiology apparatus can be included for one consolidated delivery.
Backed by its Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, the Philippines, Nepal and Bangladesh. For this biology lab equipment in India, a quick note through the contact page or an item list in the enquiry cart starts the process, and the lab tender page covers tenders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What experiment does this kit actually perform?
It measures and collects the gas evolved by aquatic plants during photosynthesis. The volume of gas is read on the calibrated capillary tube, and the gas can be drawn off with the plastic syringes for analysis.
Why is it called a root pressure kit?
The product carries this name, but its parts, a three-bulb tube, capillary and syringes on a panel, are designed to collect gas from aquatic plants during photosynthesis. Science Lab Supplies can confirm the exact contents on the quotation before you order.
Who supplies the Root Pressure Demonstration Kit?
The kit is sourced and dispatched by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India. Schools, colleges and distributors can order single kits or group quantities, together with other photosynthesis and plant physiology items.
