The Fytagoras Seed Respiration Analyzer automates the measurement of individual seed respiration across various temperatures. It tracks oxygen depletion in sealed vials due to respiration, where vial size affects oxygen levels and depletion speed. Smaller vials contain less oxygen, leading to faster depletion, while larger vials allow for a more gradual process. Depending on the study, such as seed germination, different vial sizes can be used. The image illustrates respiration measurements in vials ranging from 2 ml to 0.2 ml, showing how oxygen depletes much faster in smaller vials. This enables detailed analysis of different physiological phases. Fytagoras offers various vial volumes for the SRA, catering to different seed types and respiration studies.
