Botanical Klinostat
Product Code : JA-MI-4948
The Botanical Klinostat (SKU JA-MI-4948) is a botanical klinostat for plant physiology experiments on the effect of gravity on growth. A klinostat turns a potted seedling or germinating seeds slowly about a horizontal axis, so that gravity acts on every side equally; comparing these plants with a stationary control shows how roots and shoots respond to gravity (geotropism). It is supplied by JaincoLab for school biology and college botany laboratories, and the drive, speed and holder size are confirmed on the quotation.

Experiments with the botanical klinostat
The klinostat is the classic apparatus for showing that roots grow towards gravity and shoots away from it, because slow rotation cancels the one-sided pull of gravity.
- Geotropism experiments in senior secondary biology practicals
- Plant physiology practicals in B.Sc botany
- Comparing rotated and stationary seedlings in growth studies
- Demonstrations of plant responses to gravity
