Re: Chemwatch

Thanks for the empathy linotas. I feel a little uplifted that others share the same views on chemwatch. I'll be downloading manifests to excel spreadsheets in the near future and watch my stress levels disappear. Wow I feel better already. :)

Re: Stocktake on Chemwatch FFX

Chemwatch recommend Google Chrome and generating reports through the Materials section of the program and not the Manifest.

And for the zero volume results in repeated chemicals I ticked and deleted them. In the previous version it would wipe out the whole original entry but not anymore.

Re: Exposure to contaminated petri dishes

Can the experiment where the students swab every nook and cranny of the school still be performed? I understood that it was banned due to possible unknown bacterial growths, would somebody be able to confirm this - thank you
