In Roediger and McDermott's ( 1995 ) experiment, subjects were presented with a list of related items ( such as candy, sugar, honey ) to study.

People with source amnesia during this test feel ' phantom ' feelings of familiarity towards words that are semantically related ( e. g.: candy, sugar, sweet ) and will more often claim to have seen a word that was not presented during the experiment.

The experiment for which Buchner won the Nobel Prize consisted of producing a cell-free extract of yeast cells and showing that this " press juice " could ferment sugar.

The experiment showed that after removing this bacteria, healthy bacteria was able to move in and replace the habitat and preventing S. mutans from regrowing.

Argon ( αργος, Greek meaning " inactive ", in reference to its chemical inactivity ) was suspected to be present in air by Henry Cavendish in 1785 but was not isolated until 1894 by Lord Rayleigh and Sir William Ramsay in Scotland in an experiment in which they removed all of the oxygen, carbon dioxide, water and nitrogen from a sample of clean air.

Rutherford interpreted the gold foil experiment as suggesting that the positive charge of a heavy gold atom and most of its mass was concentrated in a nucleus at the center of the atom — the Rutherford model.

In an article he submitted for the medical journal The Lancet during World War I, Fleming described an ingenious experiment, which he was able to conduct as a result of his own glass blowing skills, in which he explained why antiseptics were killing more soldiers than infection itself during World War I. Antiseptics worked well on the surface, but deep wounds tended to shelter anaerobic bacteria from the antiseptic agent, and antiseptics seemed to remove beneficial agents produced that protected the patients in these cases at least as well as they removed bacteria, and did nothing to remove the bacteria that were out of reach.
