Science project

[monkeyman]

I'm doing a science project on the fluid inside Nepenthes pitchers and I want to get the fluid analized. So, I was wondering. How do you get it analized? It seems pretty complicated, from what I have read. And I don't have any equipment. I just want to know the concentration of the enzymes in the pitcher fluid.

You can read some cpns (I forget which issues) that have information on this. I never really paid attention but if you really want to know I can look it up for you.

Also, the enzyme concentration will depend on the amount of food in the pitcher, and will grow if the pitcher is jiggled around a lot.

Have fun though

I made a post about the Ph level that pitchers make...I was unable to find it *grrrr*. The post is called Ph Levels or something like that.

Hope that helps,
