Invert the tube if it contains a sohd medium, and set it aside for Fig. 17. Kipp apparatus arranged for generating hydrogen A, generator; B, wash bottle containing lead nitrate solution; C, wash bottle containing silver nitrate solution 2. Plates and miscellaneous cultures. Place the cultures in a Novy jar (Fig. 16) connected with a hydrogen generator. Pass the hydrogen from the Kipp generator through two wash bottles, one of which contains lead nitrate solution, the other a solution of sUver nitrate. It is well to add another wash bottle contain- ing potassium permanganate. From time to time collect a test tube full of gas from the outlet. Test by holding a burning match at the mouth of the tube.
