Sept.12‚ 2013 Experiment 1: SLIME (Starting Labs Is Mighty Exciting) Abstract In this experiment we investigate the properties of SLIME. Substitution of polyvinyl alcohol instead of Guar gum makes this experiment quite accessible. The Slime is prepared by mixing a solution of (Na2B4O7*10H2O) sodium tetraborate decahydrate (Borax) and H2O with a solution of polyvinyl alcohol (pva) and H2O. Then stirring for ~10 minutes to obtain the final product‚ SLIME. The product was examined and noted

This slime is soft‚ squishy‚ and fun to play with‚ while maintaining a solid form. There’s different ways to play with it‚ you can stretch it‚ squeeze it‚ bend it‚ and put it back together!

Dg’s preference of pH was examined by using a variety of pH solutions in a petri dish. The data suggests that the growth of fruiting bodies observed in pH 9 was comparable to that of pH 4.

Polycephalum Eugenia Rita Lee Dr. Bonner BIO 111 Introduction: Physarum polycephalum is a type of slime mold of the myxogastria class that prefers warm and damp conditions. It can go through three forms‚ plasmodium‚ sclerotium‚ and sporangia. The plasmodium is the primary active state‚ where P. polycephalum consists of protoplasmic veins and multiple nuclei. During this stage‚ the slime mold surrounds its’ food and secretes enzymes to break the particles down into nutrients P. polycephalum
