Appartus For Experiments On Roots Pressure, T-tube With Stopcock And Borosilicate Glass Graduated Ja

The Apparatus for Experiments on Root Pressure is a specialized laboratory glassware system engineered to demonstrate, measure, and analyze the upward sap-driving force exerted by plant root systems. Fabricated from premium borosilicate glass, this integrated setup provides plant physiologists, researchers, and educators with a highly reliable method for quantitative xylem pressure studies.

The complete configuration features a precision three-way glass T-tube assembly equipped with an integrated leak-proof glass or PTFE stopcock. This allows for seamless fluid isolation, baseline balancing, or attachment to a pressure gauge/manometer line. The system interfaces directly with a heavy-wall borosilicate glass graduated jar, which serves as a highly accurate, clear volumetric reservoir for monitoring fluid displacement caused by root pressure exudation over extended periods.

Key Features

• Manufactured entirely from high-purity borosilicate 3.3 glass for superior clarity, thermal shock resistance, and chemical inertness
  
• Precision-formed T-tube connection optimized for smooth fluid pathways and secure, leak-proof hose or stem attachments
  
• Integrated high-performance stopcock ensuring effortless, precise control over liquid lines and pressure equalization
  
• Heavy-duty glass graduated jar featuring high-contrast, durable fired-on enamel markings for fast, error-free volumetric readings
  
• Rugged mechanical design with uniform wall thicknesses to minimize structural stress during plant attachment and assembly changes
• International Standards
• Our plant physiology apparatus sets are manufactured in strict compliance with globally recognized scientific manufacturing tolerances, ensuring seamless international integration and export market readiness:

• ISO 4788 – Laboratory Glassware – Standard Tolerances for Volumetric Glassware and Reservoirs
  
• ASTM E438 – Standard Specification for Glasses used in Laboratory Apparatus Manufacturing
  
• CE Compliance – Alignment with international scientific laboratory instrument stability, safety, and performance parameters
• Custom configurations—including variable stopcock bores (glass or PTFE plugs), specialized jar capacities, and custom side-arm diameters—can be engineered to match your proprietary product catalogs or specific global institutional tender documentation.

Applications

Extensively utilized across university botany departments, agricultural research institutes, crop science testing stations, forestry development facilities, and advanced educational biology labs to evaluate sap flow, root pressure fluctuations, and environmental impacts on plant xylem mechanics.
