A microspectroscope, for use with the microscope, as described by Detmer, 23, may also be used, but is very expensive, and for our present pur- pose has no advantage over the above instruments/ "t Different thicknesses of solution may most effectively be secured by use of triangular troughs sold. Fig. 15.—An efficient arrangement or the spectroscope for the study of chlorophyl; upper section as seen from above, lower from the side, Xi. The dotted lines show the path of light, reflected in part by mirrors, from a single incan- descent lamp. The chlorophyl is in the flat (Soyka) flask. by dealers in chemicals, though the cement of some of these is attacked by alcohol. Very good and well-colored pictures of chlorophyl spectra are in the Frank and Tschirch diagrams (page 23), Plates XV, XVI. Demonstration. The chlorophyl spectrum may be shown to a class, though not to all simultaneously, by the hand instrument above described and figured (Fig. 16). It should be possible to project the spectrum finely upon a screen with a projecting Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Ganong, William Francis, 1864-1941.
