Effec | Effect of caffeine on plant growth | Description This science fair project was performed to find out the effect on plant growth of adding caffeine to the soil. The experiment was done by using mung bean plants and watering them daily with water‚ water mixed with caffeine and with a coffee mixture. Hypothesis The mung beans watered using the coffee mixture will grow the fastest. Overview Caffeine and plant growth The effect of adding caffeine to the soil and its effect on plant

Caffeine is a drug that helps people stay awake or alert. It is also known as trimethylxanthine‚ a naturally occurring chemical stimulant. The formula for caffeine is C8H10N4O2. It shares several traits with famous drugs like amphetamines‚ cocaine and heroin. It uses the same biochemical mechanisms as these drugs to stimulate brain function.

Caffeine‚ the stimulant in coffee‚ has been called “the most widely used psychoactive substance on Earth .” Synder‚ Daly and Bruns have recently proposed that caffeine affects behavior by countering the activity in the human brain of a naturally occurring chemical called adenosine. Adenosine normally depresses neuron firing in many areas of the brain. It apparently does this by inhibiting the release of neurotransmitters‚ chemicals that carry nerve impulses from one neuron to the next. Like

EXTRACTION OF CAFFEINE FROM TEA LEAVES ABSTRACT Caffeine extraction from the commercial tea leaves (Lipton Yellow Label Tea) that was done is multiple extraction. 4 tea bags were used in the experiment; tea leaves were weighed having 8.5333 grams. The leaves were boiled in a beaker with 150ml of water; the aqueous tea extract was transferred in a seperatory funnel mixed with DCM (20ml)‚ done thrice. The DCM layer was washed with 20ml 6M NaOH in the seperatory funnel; the organic layer
