Finding a project for Luminol?!

Post by VNPHAM01 »

I want to do a crime scene science fair project about the Effect of Temperature on Luminol, but that is already so well researched, I need a topic that isn't that well researched! I tried researching different variables I can change but I couldn't come up with anything. Could you help me find something I could do differently to my project???

Hi VNPHAM01,

Science Buddies has a project on luminol here:
https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... background

Are you looking for a way to change that project, or are you looking for a new project idea? Take a look at the "Make It Your Own" tab of the project if you are just looking to add something a little different.

For a new project idea, why not try to explore or solve a common problem with the use of luminol? Has your research uncovered any other issues with its use, besides temperature? A quick internet search made me start thinking about false positives. There might be something there you can explore. Please post again if you have more questions.

Good luck!
