Mine doesn't involve the use of spectroscopy technology. Just came back from the lab this morning. Some of the samples have not been completely freeze-dried. Will have to repeat the drying process tomorrow. Cool..I did a bit of drug cancer research/radio chemistry with sea extracts back then - mainly doing reflux/synthesis/rotary evaps/HPLC/GLC/Chromotography/etc (with Prof "Con" Cambie and I think Charmain O'Connor (I thinks that's the name).... But got first job testing soils, then inks, then part time lab demo's at Auckland Uni. |

Rotary evaporator is a no-no for the students as one of the members in our team broke the rubber band of the $100,000 ultracentrifugation machine the other day, causing them to impose this limit on us. HPLC/GLC.... Gosh, I dread to use the chromatography machines. :D |

HPLC/GLC.... Gosh, I dread to use the chromatography machines. :D Yeah...I always dreaded using rotary evaps, particularly if the extracts dried out too much, or for water cooled evaps, drying out, as sometimes too much cleaning. As for HPLC/GLC, in theory easy to understand, but the apparatus have always been a bit complex, to try accurately isolate various chemical groups for identification. |
