Oxygen electrode chambers for Photosynthesis & Respiration Measurement

LD1/2

Gas-Phase Oxygen Electrode Chamber

  • Electrode chamber for oxygen evolution/uptake assays from tissue samples of up to 10cm2
  • Black acetal construction with cast acrylic top window allowing uniform sample illumination
  • Removable top window replaced by interface adapter allowing simultaneous fluorescence measurements with FMS fluorimeters
  • Water jacket for effective temperature control of the sample and electrode disc
  • Base mounted S1 oxygen electrode disc forming the floor of the reaction chamber

Overview

The LD1/2 leaf-disc electrode chamber is a simple device for measuring oxygen exchange from a 10cm2 leaf disc mounted within a sealed, gas-tight chamber. The LD1/2 is constructed from black acetal with a cast acrylic top window allowing the sample to be evenly illuminated for photosynthesis measurements using either the LH36/2R LED light source (when connected to the Oxylab electrode control unit) or the LS2 high intensity white light source. A prepared S1 oxygen electrode disc mounts into the base of the LD1/2 with the dome of the electrode forming the floor of the sample chamber.
