School Savers - Vernier CO2-BTA CO2 Gas Sensor

Vernier CO2-BTA CO2 Gas Sensor

With this sensor, you can easily monitor changes in CO2 levels occurring in respiration of organisms ranging from peas to humans. A 250 mL respiration chamber with probe attachment is included for running controlled experiments with small plants and animals.
On the high range, you can explore human respiratory changes in CO2 levels based on exercise.
The lower range offers more sensitivity and a wider interval for cellular respiration and photosynthetic metabolism studies.
