Are there inhibitory effects of epinephrine on nicotine toxicity?
Question
![Page 4: Preventing Nicotine Toxicity](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/5681649c550346895dd67c0c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
My hypothesis is if the nicotine concentration increases, then the daphnia
will die for both molar amounts of epinephrine.
Hypothesis

Preparation of the Nicotine Solution
Preparation of the Epinephrine
1. 2mL of Nicotine + 8mL of H20= 1M (1000mM)2. 1mL of above solution + 19mL of H20= 10mM3. 1mL of above solution + 19mL of H20= .1mM4. 1mL of above solution + 9mL of H20= .01mM5. 1mL of above solution + 9mL of H20= .001mM6. 1mL of above solution + 9mL of H20= .0001mM7. Insert each solution into five separate 1.5 mL centrifuge
tubes
1. 4.5 mL of H20 in 3 flasks2. Add .5mL of epinephrine to first flask3. Add .5mL of the above solution to the second flask4. Add .5mL of the above solution to the third flask

Allow 12 daphnia to soak in each solution of epinephrine prepared for 10 minutes
Put daphnia under microscope Add drop of each concentration
of nicotine to different daphnia (two for every dilution of nicotine)
Count heartbeats for 1 min per Daphnia
Record results

Epinephrine is effective at .1M concentration to treat low dosages of Nicotine poisoning
Hypothesis partially supported

Factors the Affected Accuracy Future Experimentation
Death of Daphnia Aging solutions .1M Epinephrine’s
potency on Daphnia Inability to be precise
with counting
Test other molar amounts of epinephrine on nicotine
