Soil Analysis kit
Product Code : SCL-BLE-11634
Soil Analysis kit (SKU SCL-BLE-11634) is a field-and-lab set for testing soil samples in biology, environmental science and agriculture classes. It combines a soil pH meter, a pH 1–14 indicator with three known-pH solutions, reagents such as Griess and Nessler reagents, and the glassware needed to prepare soil extracts. It suits school and college practicals on soil as a habitat. Science Lab Supplies, based in Ambala, India, offers the soil kit to schools, colleges, training institutes and distributors.
Specifications
Each row of the table names one item of the soil kit and its quantity. In summary, it holds measuring and filtering glassware, five each of Petri dishes, test tubes, stoppered tubes and lidded jars, a soil pH meter with indicator and reference solutions, and seven reagent bottles.

Applications and Experiments for the Soil Analysis Kit
Students collect soil in the jars, shake it with water, filter the extract and test it. The pH meter and indicator give acidity, and the reagents support simple chemical tests on the extract. It fits CBSE/NCERT Class 7 soil topics, Class 12 environment chapters and B.Sc. ecology or agriculture practicals.
- Class 7 soil: comparing pH of garden, field and roadside samples with the meter and the pH 1–14 indicator.
- Ecology projects: running chemical tests on filtered soil extracts with the reagents supplied.
- Sample preparation: weighing equal soil portions on Semi-Analytical Scales with Weighing Stones and transferring them with a Spatula.
Safety: chloroform is toxic and volatile, Nessler reagent contains a mercury compound, sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid are corrosive, and barium chloride is toxic. Use these only under supervision, with gloves and eye protection, in a ventilated room.
Standard Scope of Supply
The kit is supplied with every item in the table, from the 250 ml beaker and 100 ml cylinder to the soil pH meter and seven reagent bottles. Soil samples are not included. Shelf life depends on the chemical, its grade and storage conditions; ask us for the expiry date of the batch you are quoted.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You can order one kit for a teacher or several for field groups. Science Lab Supplies sends a quotation that sets out the packing, delivery time and price for the number you request, and reagent refills or extra glassware can be listed on the same quotation as separate lines.
As the holder of an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria and Kenya; note that some reagents may need special transport. Contact the team on the contact page, use the enquiry cart, or refer to the lab tender page for formal tenders.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is soil pH measured with this kit?
Soil pH can be read with the soil pH meter, or a soil-water extract can be tested with the pH 1–14 indicator. The three solutions of known pH let students check their readings.
Which reagents come in the kit?
Methylene blue, sodium hydroxide, Griess reagent, Nessler reagent, 10% hydrochloric acid, chloroform and 10% barium chloride solution, one bottle each. Batch expiry dates are confirmed on the quotation.
Who supplies the Soil Analysis kit?
Science Lab Supplies, located in Ambala, India, supplies the kit and quotes schools, colleges, training institutes and distributors directly. Quotations include packing details and any transport conditions that apply to the reagents.
Is the kit suitable for younger students?
The pH work suits middle-school classes. Tests involving chloroform, Nessler reagent, sodium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid or barium chloride should be carried out by older students or the teacher, with eye protection and supervision.
