First day in lab...

Great first day in lab! After getting all of the paper work done, we started our day christening the new lab chairs! As i told them, they will spend lot of time at there desks documenting their work so they should be as comfortable as possible. We talked about keeping a lab notebooks, the new printer/scanner/copier/fax, and a few other topics before heading to the balance room to validate the pipets they will be using all summer...1 bad out of 8 is not too troublesome...we even have an extra p5000, so not a problem at this time. After a fine lunch at the local Chinese restaurant, we discussed buffers. These guys actually remembers the technical aspects of buffers...thanks Audra. We proceeded to the lab to make some buffers...along the way talking about RO and nanopure water. All in all a great day...i hope they agree!
