Globe Scientific Wide Mouth Round Amber HDPE Bottle, 500mL Overview
The Globe Scientific Wide Mouth Round Amber HDPE Bottle, 500mL protects light-sensitive samples and reagents inside a durable amber high-density polyethylene body. Its wide mouth opening simplifies filling, dispensing, and cleaning, while the matching amber polypropylene closure helps maintain a secure seal during storage and transport.
Amber pigmentation reduces UV and visible light exposure, supporting the integrity of photosensitive contents. HDPE construction resists many aqueous solutions and offers practical chemical compatibility for routine laboratory use. Round geometry stacks neatly on shelves and fits standard storage racks.
Each case ships bulk packed with bottles and caps bagged separately, an arrangement suited to high-throughput facilities that assemble containers on demand. Lab teams handling sample aliquoting, reagent batching, or field collection will find this 500mL format a flexible workhorse.

Laboratory Applications
Amber bottles shield contents from light, making them a standard choice for storing photosensitive reagents, stock solutions, and prepared media. The 500mL wide mouth format accommodates granular solids, viscous liquids, and pourable samples that struggle through narrow necks. Research, clinical, and environmental labs use bottles like this for routine reagent organization.
HDPE resists many acids, bases, and aqueous buffers, supporting general-purpose storage and short-term transport. Field sampling programs benefit from the lightweight, shatter-resistant polymer body compared with glass. Verify chemical compatibility with your specific contents before extended storage.
Ordering & Bulk Pricing
This bottle ships as a case of 125 units (CS/125), with bottles and caps bagged separately for flexible on-demand assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose an amber bottle instead of a clear one?
Amber pigmentation limits UV and visible light reaching the contents, which helps preserve light-sensitive reagents and solutions. Clear bottles allow easy content viewing but offer no light protection.
How are the bottles and caps packaged in this case?
Each case contains 125 units bulk packed, with bottles and caps bagged separately. This lets labs store components individually and assemble bottles only as needed.
Is HDPE suitable for storing my reagents?
HDPE handles many aqueous solutions, acids, and bases well, though compatibility depends on the specific chemical, concentration, and storage duration. Always confirm against a chemical resistance chart before use.
