Are you a "Supertaster?!" Test the phenotype and genetically-determined taste response your students, clients, and family to three different chemicals. This set includes one vial of vials of PTC, one vial of sodium benzoate, one vial of thiourea, and one vial of control paper. Each vial contains 100 papers.

• 100 Strips containing Thiourea
• 100 Strips containing NO chemical (Control)

Approximately 25% of Americans are considered "supertasters" and, of this subset, people have varying levels of "supertasting" ability. "Supertasters" are people who have the ability to taste the substance Phenylthiourea (PTC). Some people cannot taste this substance at all and others can taste it distinctly. Whether or not a person is a supertaster (phenotype) is dependent on his/her genetics (genotype).
  • 4 vials with 100 papers

  • Test the genetically-determined taste response of students and families

  • PTC only has a taste to 7 out of 10 people and different genes determine if you can taste sodium benzoate. If it tastes salty, bitter, or sweet to you, then you have the dominant gene (S-). If you don't taste anything, you are recessive (ss).

  • Thiourea may have taste if you can taste PTC

  • Perfect for a demonstration of genetics, heredity, and taste testing
