Handleiding

YOUR LABORATORY

AND YOUR TOOLS

SETTING UP A WORKSPACE

You should set up your work area in a quiet

and well illuminated spot. The surrounding

floor should be easy to clean up and safe

for spills. The work surface should be as

steady as possible and have a surface that

is easy to clean or is protected by a large

cover, such as a plastic desk cover. Always

work carefully and systematically and take

care not to spill anything, as it might leave

spots. Prepare small plastic bags and paper

towels so that you can immediately throw

away used materials and wipe up spills.

You can dispose of used smell strips directly

into a covered garbage container, and

thus avoid having too many other smells

in the air while you are trying to design

perfumes. You will need a pencil and paper

for writing on the smell strips or taking

notes. Air out your work area often, or

work near an open window. When you are

done, do not forget to clean up and wash

your work area with a moist paper towel

and possibly a few drops of soap.

TOOLS, MEASUREMENTS

AND PROCEDURES

Pipettes

You will need a pipette,

or dropper, for several

experiments. You should

practice using it ahead

of time. The drawing

to the left shows how

to use the pipette.

When you squeeze

the upper part, some air

will escape. Dip the pipette

into the liquid and release

the pressure. Liquid will

rise into the pipette. With a

light squeeze, you can now

dispense liquid by the drop.

Preparation

Preparing for your experiments

properly is very important. Nothing is

more disturbing than if you must go

and find something in the middle of an

experiment. Check that you have all of the

items that you will need before beginning

an experiment. You will find a complete

shopping list on page 1.

Smell Strips

You will need to prepare some smell

strips, or test strips, for most of your

experiments. These are simply long, thin

strips of thick paper (blotting paper works

best) onto which you can dab a small

amount of perfume oil in order to smell it.

There are small holes in the kit's tray for

holding these strips upright.

Volumes

The volume of the liquids for the

experiments is indicated in milliliters.

The abbreviation is ml which means one

thousandth of a liter. You will use the small

measuring cups for these volumes.

Filtration

Filtration is a method used to separate

solid material and fine particles from a

liquid. To perform this, take a round coffee

filter or cut a circular piece about 3 inches

wide from a normal coffee filter. Fold this

round filter twice and put it in the funnel

as shown in the drawing on the next page.

Prepare a lot of smell strips:

You will need them.
