“Test-Tube Burgers” One summer when taking a trip to a friends country house for a weekend I took on the challenge of being a vegetarian. My friend‚ an only child‚ had been raised a vegetarian by parents who were also vegetarians; never once in his life had he eaten meat. Although the family was tolerant of whatever I did‚ I decided this was an opportunity to try it for myself and see what it would be. At the end of the few days I found it quite easy‚ although in reality I did not consume nearly

Recently a scientist by the name of Mark Post helped create a “test tube” beef burger. The burger was grown in a solution of nutrients and cost about 330‚000 dollars to make. The burger was created by taking muscle cells from a cow and growing them into tissue. The meat had to be dyed to make it look like real beef. The meat contains no fat and is disease free. The meat was made in the Netherlands at Maastricht University. It was served to two volunteers and was flavored with egg powder and bread

2.MATERIALS and METHODS 2.1. Nature of Reactants 2.1.1 We placed 3mL of 3 M HCl into each of 3 seperate test tubes. Next we added mossy zinc to the first test tubes‚ Sn granules to the second and Cu filings to the third and compared the rates of evolution of hydrogen gas in each test tube. 2.1.2. We mixed 3mL of 0.02 M KMnO4 and 2mL of 3 M H2SO4 in a test tube and stirred using a glass rod. Next‚ we divided the solution into two. We added 2mL of 0.03 M Na2C2O4 solution to the first half and

IDENTIFICATION OF FOOD CONSTITUENTS IN MILK. INTRODUCTION: In this experiment two milk samples are given and its compositions are tested using different methods such as using benedict solution to test the presence of reducing sugar‚ using copper II sulphate to test the presence of protein‚ using K3( to test the presence of fat. However in this experiment‚ not only are the milk tested for its composition‚ the amount of the particular substance such as reducing sugar‚ protein and fat is also tested by

which water moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. I am going to record my results to see if osmosis occurs in water solution of sugar solution. Apparatus In this experiment I would need; - 1) 3 test tube 2) A beaker 3) A cork borer 4) A Knife Safety In this experiment safety will not be a major hazard as it’s not a very dangerous experiment apart from the knife which I’m using to cut the potato pieces which I need to be careful

Therefore it is vital to use the same beetroot. Volume of water A 25ml measuring cylinder should be used to accurately measure 15ml of water for each test tube. Water is a solvent and only a certain amount of pigment can be absorbed by the water. Hence it would create a contrast in water potential. Time Each cylinder will remain in its test tube for 5 minutes before the water is removed and tested. A stopwatch must be used.
