Q-teach Plant CO2 Package
The Q-teach Plant CO2 Package is designed for teaching the principles of photosynthesis, respiration, and transpiration in leaves placed in a flow-through chamber. The package includes everything required by the instructors: NDIR CO2 analyzer, gas pump/flow monitor, RH/Temperature sensor, leaf chamber, LED light source calibrated in software for PAR output, 6 gas bags, accessories, data interface, software, and experimental files with all experiments and calculations outlined. Operational and laboratory experiment manuals are also included.
Sample Experiments
- Measurements and characterization of photosynthesis at different light intensities
- Measurements of CO2 dependence of photosynthesis
- Further experiments based on the above (sun versus shade plants; C3 versus C4 plants etc.)
