Launch of the NanoBioLab-mobil for the 2025/2026 school year

After a long period of planning, we are now pleased to announce that NanoBioLab will become mobile in the 2025/2026 school year. In cooperation with Autohaus Bunk GmbH + Co. KG, laboratory chemicals wholesaler Carl Roth GmbH + Co. KG, and Sparkassenverband Saar, we will bring our laboratory services exclusively to you as a partner school.

Information:

The mobile laboratory has ten workstations packed in boxes. Depending on the size of your class, we will come to you with three to five supervisors. All you need is a suitable room at your school. Attached you will find our range of experiments for the NanoBioLabmobil. We are also happy to support you from the conception to the implementation of science days, project weeks, or training courses for your students and teachers.

You can choose from a wide range of curriculum-oriented experiments according to the grade level. Find out more about the selection of experiments for the NanoBioLabmobil below. We also offer digital versions of many experiments, e.g., in the form of eBooks or augmented reality.

Registering for a lab appointment:

Booking requests can only be made via our NanoBioLab email address (nanobiolab@uni-saarland.de). Please allow at least four weeks' notice for bookings. We will keep you informed of any changes.

We look forward to seeing you!

 

Overview of School Laboratory Experiments in the NanoBioLab-mobil

Elementary school and Grade 4 to 7
From grade 4

Experiments around the topic of water

(properties and separation methods)

In this series of experiments, students use various experiment kits to explore the fascinating properties of water.-
From grade 5Extraction of fragrancesFragrances are found in many everyday situations, whether in perfumes or scented candles. During the experiment, students analyze fragrances and distill them.-
From grade 5Science QuestThe students go on an exciting treasure hunt in the NanoBioLab. By solving puzzles with the help of various experiments, they obtain the necessary code numbers to open the treasure chest and thus reveal the inside of the chest.Enrichment by iBook
Grades 8 to 10
From grade 8Analysis of acidsIn this series of experiments, students demonstrate their knowledge of acids and their properties. The goal is to analyze two acids and identify them by their properties.Enrichment by digital measuring sensors possible
From grade 8Analysis of ColaAlmost all students know the popular soft drink "COLA". In this series of experiments, they learn different ways of distinguishing between cola and cola-light. They will also analyze the exact acidity of cola.Enrichment by iBook 
From grade 8Experiments with carbon dioxideThe gas carbon dioxide is a solid component of air. In this series of experiments, the students deal with the different states of aggregation of carbon dioxide and its properties.
The experiment cannot be booked on Tuesday mornings for organisational reasons.		-
Grades 11, 12 (13)
From grade 11PlasticsIn this experiment, students first synthesize various plastics on their own, learning about key material properties and differences between plastics. They then investigate how recycled plastics can be reused in 3D printing.Enrichment through AR and 3D printers
From grade 11

Synthesis of an analgesic - Aspirin

 

In this series of experiments, the students synthesize one of the best-known active ingredients in painkillers. Using thin-layer chromatography, they can then compare their self-produced active ingredient with drugs in tablet form and make a statement about which known active ingredient is involved-
From grade 11Sugar, sugar substitutes and sweetenersWhat would sweets be without sugar, sugar substitutes or sweeteners? Correct - not sweet! Through further experiments, the students investigate the properties of the various functional groups. The aim is to find out which of the five unknown substances is a sugar, sugar substitute or sweetener.

iBook enrichment possible
