producing another action potential (Stillman‚ 2005). In this lab‚ compound action potentials (CAPs) will be measured from an isolated sciatic nerve from a cane toad‚ Bufo marinus. Compound action potentials are the total sum of action potentials from the multitude of neurons that compose a nerve (Stillman‚ 2005).

Date: 20/03/13 Flame Test – Investigating Compounds Aims To identify the presence of a relatively small amount (ie low concentration) of a metal ion in a compound. Method 1. Clean a platinum or nichrome wire by dipping it into concentrated hydrochloric acid. 2. Hold the platinum or nichrome wire at the hottest or blue part of a non-luminous Bunsen flame. 3. Repeat until the wire does not produce any colour in the flame (note: do not touch the wire‚ as salt in sweat will produce
