Hi all,
Please note that risk assessments for work involving HF acid have been updated detailing risks associated with using HF acid and pregnancy.
Can all HF users please read the revised risk assessments and date the appropriate column in the training record. For reference the RAs are CELTIC36, CELTIC20 and CELTIC29.
Cheers,
Edward

Hi all,
Both iCAPs are now up and running. The software issue on the laser instrument is resolved and we have rectified the electronics issue which was causing issues with the detector on the solution instrument. Additionally the solution instrument has a new autosampler installed (which is calibrated and working correctly). Please note the probe arm is fixed on this new autosampler so you will break it if you drive it to a position where a vial is capped and it ramps down into the vial lid. Therefore please, please, please remember to uncap all of your samples and standards when using it. Otherwise you will break the (very expensive) carbon fibre probe arm and this will need to be replaced.
Cheers,
Edward

Good morning,
Just a reminder that we will meet at 11am today in 1.58.
I am aware we need to move the time of the lab meeting as it clashes with research group meetings. We can discuss a new time this morning.
Cheers,
Edward
