Materials:
- 4 slices of non-preservative bread (I used Baker's Delight bread)
- 4 cotton balls
- 4 sealable bags
- Rice vinegar
- White vinegar
- Brown vinegar
- Magnifying glass
- Dropper
- Face mask
Method:
- Wet the 4 cotton balls with water.
- Seal each slice of bread in a separate sealable bag and dab one area of the bread with a cotton ball until it is moist. Leave the bag in a dark area until mould begins to grow.
- Put on face mask.
- Draw white vinegar into the dropper.
- Open a little slit of the sealablebag and place a few drops of vinegar onto the bread mould.
- Wash the dropper afterwards.
- Observe any changes to the mould over a period of time when changes start happening to the mould.
- Record your observations.
- Repeat steps 4-8 with brown and rice vinegar.
And I have started my experiment tonight! I've put the slices of bread in the sealable bags and chucked them under my bed. Dark place ;)
I'll upload photos tomorrow. For now, night!
