Anna and I went into CERES today for a little over an hour. During this time we initiated extraction of a 4th batch of PSDs. This batch has ~14 samples including QC, which will make for a longer day for CERES staff tomorrow, but everyone was on board with this approach. Another batch of glassware is baking out tonight and will be ready by tomorrow morning. I confirmed with Anna that CERES does not currently have access to high purity water like the Anderson lab at OSU. Because of this, I have recommended rinsing glassware x2 with acetone and hexane just prior to bake-out. While Anna was transferring glassware to the oven, I verified retention times for the last 4 singles which were run on Friday night.
Tomorrow, CERES staff will continue with dialyses, prepare another batch for extraction tomorrow night, and another batch of glassware for bake-out. Concurrently, I will work with Anna on updating the GC-ECD cal table and assessing the quality of the calibration.
