  2. Chemical Analysis of the Effect of Gravity on Capsicum Chinense ‘Habanero’ Lisa Marie Pena Principal Investigator Juan Nieto and Vanessa Rohanna Co-Investigators Alma Baeza and Maxwell FergusonCollaborators Ernesto Monte Teacher Facilitator

  3. HYPOTHESES • Habanero chili exposed to microgravity will decrease in carotenoid content, thus decreasing piquancy. • Amount of ascorbic acid will decrease, thus increasing pH value of the chili.

  4. EXPERIMENT DESIGNGROUND PREPARATION OF EXPERIMENTAL SET UP I’m heading to space to disprove the rumor about my hotness. MANIPULATED VARIABLE: CONDITIONS OF GRAVITY • RESPONDING VARIABLE: • PH VALUE • ASCORBIC ACID • PIQUANCY • CAROTENOID

  5. EXPERIMENT DESIGNINSTRUCTIONS ON BIOCHEMICAL ANALYSES Acetone (10 ml) Oxalic Acid (5 ml) Diatomaceous Earth Filter homogenize Extract oil centrifuge Petroleum Either distilled water Amount of sugar solution (ml) filter acetone Extract pH Ascorbic Acid Spectrometer (450 nm) Absorbance

  6. DATA AND OBSERVATIONS Habanero Chili exposed to Microgravity Habanero Chile on Earth’s standard gravity SORRY! THERE’S NO DATA AVAILABLE FOR THIS. 5.05 5.05 5.05 pH value Ascorbic Acid content THEY DID NOT ALLOW ME TO GO…TOO HOT!!! (LOL!!!) Carotenoid content Amount of sugar solution added to dilute piquancy (ml) 500 500 500
