Paste the link into the google.com search box, and you can find a cache
of the page listing the labs. The Biology Lab Clearinghouse site is
either temporarily offline or defunct. The C3/C4 experiments use the
www.qubitsystems.com photosynthesis equipment. Qubit Systems might have
copies of the labs.
A simple C3/C4 experiment is to grow a C3 plant and a C4 plant in a
sealed, clear plastic or glass container. The C4 plant will grow better
because it has a lower CO2 compensation point. It will effectively
"steal" the CO2 the C3 plant respires.

>> I'm trying to find more info about the BLC that is mentionned on the internet. The last link posted around 2001, does not connect to any information. I am writing because of a search on the internet for C3 C4 plant photorespiration experiments. Specifically google gave me this info:
>> BLC - PLANTS Experiment 8 - Measurement of Photorespiration in C3 and C4 Plants, rtf · pdf ... Dr. R. Hodson, University of Delaware ...
