What’s better than dressing up as just about anything and getting free candy? A science experiment of course! Don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of candy to spare a few for a fun educational investigation. In [...]
In the last couple weeks, we’ve been blown away by LaMotte’s creative kits and apps for use with dipslides. But of course, they’re working on yet another line of activity kits to continue to enhance [...]
Last week, we shared LaMotte’s BioPaddle Water Quality Kits, and we mentioned that every BioPaddle kit comes with a free app and the option to purchase the extended version. The apps are so cool they [...]
LaMotte Company is a leader in providing quality products for environmental science education. They have created several exciting BioPaddle educational kits that we think you should know about. This week, we’re going to focus on [...]
All test strips have limitations, and we believe that if our customers know what those limitations are, they are better able to perform reliable tests with accurate results. We’ve touched upon the limitations of pH [...]
Dorothy might have been more fascinated with lions and tigers and bears, but we’ve been making litmus paper since Precision began, and we think it’s just as fascinating. Like the Wizard of Oz, litmus paper [...]
We are often asked if we can make test strips or color charts in smaller, closer increments, and we always want to say “YES!”, but we sometimes have limitations. To understand color chart limitations, we [...]
