Hi All,
it's been a while since we talked.
Does anyone have a system for dispensing hydrogn peroxide to classes?
I favour the containers they come in with the paper valve on top.
When we use dropper bottles the teat swells dangerously....

Re: Magnets
Hi All,
the people at Walchope where we bought our bar magnets years ago, have a service where they re-magnetise them, paint them and supply new spacers and keepers if needed. All at a very reasonable price,
Cheers,

Hi Mary,
I have recommended John Reed, many times but you would need to check with him about microscopes. Having said that he helped us out. I can PM you with the details if you would like?

Butyric acid
Hello all, it seems there is nothing that makes such beautiful esters as butyric acid. Has anyone some ideas how to store this horrible stuff? At present I have it in the 25mL bottles it came in, inside a self-seal plastic bag, inside a glass jar, inside another glass jar, inside the corrosive cupbo...

Oyster bottles
Hi All,

Re: Greenleaf Farm Lab
Hi Julie,
we have a Greenleaf Farm Lab kit which I don't think we have ever used.
I pulled it out and there are sheets labelled 'Confidential - Preparation of reagents for schools'.
I can fax it to you if you would like,

Whilst this is a good alternative for many things, we have decided NOT to go for the cheaper ones in this at least in future only because they do not pour or seal well. ie - they drip when t...
