Microscale Chemistry Experimentation for Egyptian Teacher Students

The idea of microscale chemistry experimentation using vials, dropper bottles and syringes goes back to Dr. M. K. El-Marsafy:

End of the eighties he introduced these worldwide available materials for pre-service teacher training and education at  Ain Shams University Cairo. Thousands of young Egyptian students learned how to teach chemistry starting by practical work.

Advantages of Microscale Chemistry Experimentation:

1. less chemicals, 2. less waste, 3. less space, 4. more safety, 5. less costs, 6. materials easy to find, 7. working at home, 8. own portable low-cost lab for school preparation.
