Respirometer
Product Code : EL-LE-12216
Eduscope India is a leading Respirometer
Quick Answer: The Respirometer consists of two stoppered boiling tubes connected by three-way taps to either limb of a graduated manometer.
As a scientific lab equipment manufacturer resource, it is used for comparing rates of absorption or evolution of gases by small organisms during respiration. It pairs naturally with EduScope India's U-Tube Manometer on Stand, Wall Hanging Type for a fuller range of manometer-based apparatus.
