<p>[QUOTE="2manybooks, post: 4304245, member: 8267"]Similar bottles are called "balsam bottles". They are used for a solution of balsam that is used in mounting coverslips on microscope slides. The glass applicator is used to touch small amounts of the solution to the slide. The ground glass cap is made to create a tight seal, as the solution is volatile and evaporates easily.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
