Moisture-Free Sample Integrity A Laboratory Desiccator is a specialized enclosure designed to maintain a low-humidity environment for the preservation of moisture-sensitive substances. Utilizing chemical desiccants such as anhydrous calcium chloride or silica gel, these vessels prevent the re-absorption of atmospheric moisture by hygroscopic samples. At Labend Scientific, our Glass Desiccator Collection features heavy-duty walls to withstand internal pressure differentials, especially in our vacuum-rated models. Desiccators are essential after high-temperature processing. For example, when a sample is removed from a muffle furnace in a Borosil Boiling Flask or a crucible, it must cool in a desiccated environment before weighing. Similarly, reagents prepared using a Borosil Volumetric Flask or distributed via a Borosil Pipette often require anhydrous storage to maintain precise molarity. Whether you are drying filtration residues from an ESAW Filter Holder or stabilizing microbial cultures in ESAW Petri Dishes, the airtight ground-glass seal ensures zero leakage. Our desiccators also complement downstream processes like separation in an ESAW Centrifuge, where the final product's stability depends on total moisture removal.

A: Plain desiccators are for general storage. Vacuum models are required for samples that must dry rapidly or are extremely sensitive to air oxidation. Q2: What is the best way to open a desiccator? A: For non-vacuum types, slide the lid horizontally rather than lifting. For vacuum models, open the stopcock slowly to equalize pressure first. Q3: How do I tell if the desiccant is saturated? A: Using "indicating" silica gel (blue) is best; it turns pink when it has absorbed maximum moisture and needs to be regenerated in an oven. Q4: What SEO terms drive this category?
