Test water pH within 2-10 range with this wide range pH testing kit. Kit includes enough materials to repeat the procedure over 50 times.

The enterobacter aerogenes culture is freeze dried into a lyophilized pellet packaged in a sterile plastic vial. DOT: Not-regulated

Plants need a variety of nutrients and minerals to grow and maintain overall health. The three main nutrients that plants require to survive and thrive are nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (also known as NPK). In this activity, students will extract nutrients from plants of your choice and...

Students will learn the necessary components and conditions for photosynthesis to occur while using leaf disks to measure the accumulation of oxygen and relate it to the rate of photosynthesis. Students will then use guided inquiry to design and conduct an experiment to examine the effects of a...

Blood typing is a method of classifying blood based on the presence or absence of specific proteins, called antigens, on the surface of red blood cells. Blood type, an inherited characteristic, is valuable to know in that it affects medical procedures, such as surgery and transfusions, paternity...

Bacteria, good and bad, is all around us. In this activity students will collect and grow bacteria and then learn techniques for studying the bacteria they have grown. They will perform a simple staining technique on bacterial cells to study the morphology. They will also perform a differential...

It can be challenging to learn the atomic structure of elements and how such structure leads to trends in the periodic table. Teachers using visual and tactile models can overcome the abstract nature of the subject matter and greatly enhance student conceptualization. This kit contains materials...

Test a water sample of your choice for coliform bacteria, chloride, dissolved oxygen, biochemical oxygen demand, nitrate, pH, phosphate, and temperature. Kit contains enough materials to perform 30 tests. Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)* Disciplinary Core Ideas: MS-PS1-2...

Innovating Science Spatter Blood is specialized in that it is not corn syrup based and will dry on material allowing students to utilize the dried blood on objects for exams or other lab measurements. Innovating Science Spatter Blood is useful for various types of blood spatter analysis including:...

Show an example of polymer chemistry. Make your own nylon which is a synthetic compound of high molecular weight that consists of up to millions of repeated chemical units that are linked together. This polymer is referred to as Nylon 6-10. Aligned to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS)*...

During the nineteenth century, a Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev, began constructing a table of the elements. The work of Mendeleev allows us to understand that the periodic table of the elements is an organized classification of chemical elements based on certain properties of each element in...

These PYREX® thermometer adapters have a 24/40 Standard Taper ground joint at one end while the other end is tooled to accommodate a thermometer. The adapter comes with a rubber thermometer holder. For replacement rubber thermometer holders, see No. 7715 (0319W06). This tube is also a...

Coordination complexes are brightly colored compounds consisting of a central metal atom and ligand molecules, atoms, or ions. Synthesize and purify a lime-green coordination complex called potassium ferrioxalate trihydrate in this multi-step synthesis and optionally analzye the complex via...

DNA fingerprinting is one of the strongest forms of evidence in forensic investigations. In this activity students will perform agarose gel electrophoresis on four DNA samples to determine if DNA from suspects matches that of DNA found at a crime scene. Students will also learn about restriction...

Malachite Green 1% Aq Sol 30mL

Demonstrate the super absorbent properties of some polymers by making snow! As the polymer absorbs water it will expand to over 40 times its original volume, resulting in fluffy flakes of fake snow! DOT Info: Non-regulated

Synonyms: chemistry model sets; molecular model sets

Students can observe and measure how muscles contract. The muscles are shipped in glycerol which extracts most of the water soluble material leaving muscle tissue that can be identified and studied using a microscope. The muscle can also be stimulated to contract using the ATP chemical solution....

Ball-and-spoke structural models of graphite, sodium chloride and diamond. All models are permanently mounted on acrylic bases: Graphite (Clear hexagonal base); Sodium Chloride (Clear square base); Diamond (Clear triangular base). Each model contains 22mm diameter balls: Graphite (39); Sodium...

Explore the properties of atomic absorption and discover how certain elements absorb several specific wavelengths of light by viewing the dark line (absorption) spectra of various colored solutions including solutions containing elements that astronomers observe: erbium and praseodymium. ?Aligned to...
