our process
In our experiment, we will be exposing Daphnia magna to synthetic estrogen, also known as ethynylestradiol (EE2), at similar concentrations to those found in local bodies of water. After 24-28 hours of exposure, the D. magna will be visualized under the EVOS microscope and their heart size will be measured using ImageJ.
