Hi all,
I have been asked about a prac........it's to do with disease.
Excuse the garbled description, please, but this is how it was explained to me..........
You have about 20 dropper bottles of clear liquid, possibly just water in 19 of them and then a strong base in 1 (the disease).
Each student has a bottle and they proceed to mingle and put drops from their bottles into some of the other peoples bottles, then they add phenolphthalein (?) to see who has been "infected" with the disease and at the end they can trace back to see who the original person was with the disease.
Does anyone know this prac? and if so what chemicals exactly do we use??
Yours in hope
