Student Potometer ‘H’ type Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-LG-14455
Indian Lab Suppliers supplies the Student Potometer ‘H’ type (Product ID: 14455) as part of its laboratory glassware range. It measures how fast a cut leafy shoot takes up water, as an indicator of the rate of transpiration.
Quick Answer
The glass apparatus has an H-shaped layout with a reservoir tube 6 inches long and 3 inches wide, a side arm for filling and adjusting the water level, and a 7 inch capillary tube. A cut shoot is joined through flexible tubing so the system is airtight; as the shoot loses water, the water in the capillary moves and the distance per minute gives the rate. Strictly, a potometer measures water uptake, which closely follows transpiration. Cut the shoot under water to keep air out of the stem.
