(2022)This video demonstrates a syringe-based pressure method for extracting apoplastic bacteria, which proliferate and form microcolonies within the apoplast, the intercellular space between plant cells. The method yields debris-free bacterial samples suitable for downstream single-cell analysis.

Quantifying Respiration using Microrespirometers ExpandTo assemble the microrespirometers needed for the lab, first plug in the hot glue gun to preheat it. Push the plunger of a tuberculin syringe all the way in and then cut the end off of the syringe. Next, insert a capillary tube into the empty needle end of the syringe. Push the capillary tube in until it touches the tip of the plunger. Use the hot glue gun to create an airtight seal between the capillary tube and the tuberculin syringe.
FAQs
Moving the plunger changes pressure inside the barrel. Pulling it backward creates the pressure needed to draw liquid through the needle, while pushing it forward expels the liquid. This two-stage action supports controlled transfer of small amounts during biological procedures, where the intended volume must be delivered rather than estimated by eye.
The narrow barrel and closely spaced graduations make small volume differences easier to observe on the scale. This helps users align the plunger with the intended measurement and can reduce measurement errors during experiments or biological assessments. The design is especially relevant when a procedure requires a fraction of a milliliter rather than a larger liquid volume.
Its small-volume design can support both intradermal and subcutaneous delivery, depending on the biological or clinical procedure. These routes place a material in different tissue locations, so the syringe provides a way to measure the intended amount before expelling it through the needle. The same measurement principle therefore applies across more than one type of injection.
Supported uses include vaccines, test substances, and other laboratory or clinical materials. The syringe does not determine the biological effect of the material; instead, it provides a measured container and delivery path. This makes accurate volume handling relevant to experiments, clinical procedures, and assessments in which the material and its amount both matter.
The basic sequence is to position the plunger to draw liquid through the needle into the barrel, check the amount against the graduations, and then move the plunger forward to expel the material. This workflow links measurement with delivery, helping the operator transfer the selected small volume during a laboratory or clinical procedure.
Researchers may choose this syringe when an experiment requires a small, accurately measured liquid volume or a controlled injection into biological tissue. Its use is relevant to administering test substances, supporting biological assessments, and handling materials in laboratory settings. The visible scale and small capacity make it suited to procedures where volume precision contributes to interpretable results.
