Potometer Apparatus White Stand Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : ILS-BLE-10367
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Potometer Apparatus White Stand (Product ID: 10367) as part of its biology lab equipment range. It is a bench potometer on a white backing plate for measuring water uptake by a small leafy shoot.
Quick Answer
The apparatus is assembled under water and the cut shoot is fitted into the tube so no air enters. As the shoot loses water by transpiration it draws water along the capillary, and the air bubble moves along the scale; a syringe returns the bubble to zero between readings. Strictly, a potometer measures water uptake, which closely follows transpiration. The capillary is the only glass part, which keeps breakage to a minimum. With a porous pot connected instead of a shoot, it measures evaporation from a non-living surface for comparison.
