==Pressure tests using an unmodified pipette== | |||
*All pressure tests were conducted following the general protocol described on [[User:Moira_M._Esson/CHEM-581/2013/02/20|2013/02/20]]. | |||
*Pressure tests were conducted using an unmodified pipette in order to determine if the very slight amount of sheer pressure caused by an unmodified pipette would cause a detectable amount of dye diffusion. | |||

Notes: | |||
*The amount of dye, or concentration of dye, that was diffused from the hydrogels using an unmodified pipette was significantly lower than that of a bent pipette. | |||
*The general trends observed using a bent pipette were also observed with an unmodified pipette. | |||
