July 31st: Probe Kits, Display, and Fixing Electrodes

We completed two Probe kits today that will be donated to the Regional office in West Tennessee for Water Quality Testing. The other probe will be donated to the Health Department in Weakley County for residents to use. A picture of the two probe kits are below.

The research team also completed a display that will be in a display case in the hall of Greenfield High School representing the probes that we built. The case is present in the picture below.

The research team worked on fixing two of the reference electrodes that were not working when we calibrated the probes. Below is a picture of the process of cutting the glass tube and replacing the ceramic bead in the tube.
