I meant: high precision dispenser controller -
or just "precision dispenser" - "high" isn't stated
The main treatment factors were: (i) seedling variety (Swingle vs. Volkamer); (ii) N concentration and application frequency (three 500-mL applications of 7 mg N L-1 [N7, representing reclaimed water] or one 150-mL application of 70 mg N L-1 [N70], applied weekly); and (iii) residence time (tR = 2, 4, or 8 h). Nitrogen from stock solutions of purified grade KNO3 (Fisher Scientific, Pittsburgh, PA) was applied with a precision dispenser (100-mL manual bottle-top dispenser; Wheaton, Millville, NJ).

: dispenser is spot-on, Rachel has the right links, especially http://www.efd-inc.com/. NB in the food industry, depositor fills a cake mould.
