Week 5 - Wednesday

Sorry for the delay in posts, we've been working late and the internet at Hacienda had been down.

In the morning the staff (Adama, Anna, Marie, Vieux, and I) performed the sample blow down. That is, we used the Rotovaps and performed the nitrogen final blow down. The blow down took a very long time as only one rotovap can be used at a time due to the glassware compatibility problem I posted about before.

Some calibration standards and the internal standards were checked on the GC today.

We washed dishes today in preparation of the field samples from retrieval 2.
