Plants Physiology
Clinostat, Electrical
Catalogue No. 4012450
For demonstration of heliotropism and geotropism. Germinating seedlings are pinned to the cork table which is rotated by an electric motor at 5 revolutions per hour, and rated 220-240V, 50-60Hz, 5W. The motor is spindle mounted and may be clamped by a thumbscrew so that the plane of the table can be set at any angle. Slow rotation in the vertical or horizontal planes cancel out the effect of gravity and directional light. A Plastic cover is provided for the cork table to shield the seedlings from draughts. Diameter of cork disc is about 100mm.

Ganong’s Potometer with Glass Stop-cock
Catalogue No. 4012100/1
Comprises a graduated, narrow bore, horizontal glass measuring tube with a vessel for a plant shoot at one end and having a vertical limb with a stopcock and a funnel fitted by a ground glass joint. Mounted on a wooden stand. For Demonstration, of transpiration rates and rates of water absorption by a cut shoot under various external conditions. A plant shoot is sealed into a stopper which fits the end tube, and the whole apparatus is filled with water, the open end of the capillary tube, which is graduated in millimetres, dipping into a beaker of water. The position of the air bubble may easily be adjusted by opening the glass stopcock to admit water from the central reservoir. The whole apparatus is mounted on a varnished wooden base by spring clips. Comprises a graduate, narrow bore, horizontal glass measuring tubes with a vessel for plant shot at one end and having a vertical limb with a Teflon stopcock and a funnel fitted by a ground glass joint. Height to top of reservoir 170mm, Diameter of reservoir 20mm Length, overall 320mm, Base 320x80mm (L x W), Capillary bore 1mm.

J Tube, Screw Fitting
Catalogue No. 4012300
Glass J-tube formed from 1mm bore thick walled capillary tube, with a brass screw and collar at the end of the longer limb. Used for sampling small quantities of gas held over water (e.g., in photosynthesis or respiration experiments). A bubble of gas is introduced into the short limb. This is then lowered into reagent solution and the bubble moved back and forth so that reagent diffuses through the end water seal. The change in length of the bubble indicates the amount of gas taken up by the reagent. Use potassium hydroxide for CO2 or alkaline pyrogallol for O2. Dimension: long limb – 250mm and short limb – 100mm.
