what is the expected volume range in the experiment? Does it exceed your capacity?
'hardware-quick release connectors': indicate your final decision and state why
Comments from Other Students in the Class (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
Need more detailed explanation in the presentation.
Risks and Areas of Concern
some connectors does not seals well.
brass connectors cannot used in feeding mice because it contains zinc in the material, which could bad for mice health.
Resources or Information Required but not Available
