Today was spent running samples. So far all is going well. Several of the final samples will need to be diluted and re-run, but all of the machine QC, blanks and CCV (Continuing Calibration Verification), passed with no problems.
The GC did have a faux pas today. The front injector needle took a turn for the worse and decided to commit ritual suicide. It just curled itself up into a nice ball and of course all requisite GC errors ensued. Thank goodness a couple of extra syringes were sent with the standards, so after a few moments of silence to honor the fallen syringe, it was replaced and the system back up and running.
This afternoon was spent getting the "dropbox" software installed on Anna's computer and on the Ceres VM login. This was done and all is working tres magnifique.
All is on schedule and progressing well.
Au revoir et bonsoir.
