What's the most evil lab equipment in your opinion 😂
In my very subjective opinion? Ion chromatographs are on my shit list. It's not really their fault - the one I have to work with is old, hasn't been maintained properly, and no one else knows how to use it so I have to figure out everything myself, which is NOT FUN! It's finicky, frustrating, and it requires working with sulfuric acid, which I do not enjoy. It's very very sensitive and if you accidentally contaminate it with ions, you will be troubleshooting for weeks trying to figure out what happened. Ions are everywhere, in everything. In dust, in tap water (and nearly all filtered water, we have a special machine that makes Ultra Pure water with no ions or anything in it), on your skin, on virtually every surface that hasn't been specially cleaned. So if you have extra ions that shouldn't be there, it's a guessing game - are they from the sample? The eluent? Sample vials? Glassware? Is the water filter malfunctioning? Are the ions even there at all or is the detector messed up? You just have to keep trying stuff until it sorts itself out. The one I work with has NOT sorted itself out yet and I've been at this for over two weeks. I'm at my wit's end here.
And bonus answer for non-instrument equipment: drying tins. They're these little aluminum trays to put soil or whatever in when you stick them in the drying oven but they make Bad Noises when they scrape together. Also they bend easily, so if you stack them and then they get knocked around, sometimes it becomes very very difficult to get them apart.
In contrast, the best instrument is the Gas Chromatograph and the best other equipment is micropippettes. The GC is straightforward, easy to use, really hard to contaminate, and rarely has technical problems (plus when it does, they're not my problem - I am not the designated GC expert). Micropippettes are just fun because it's satisfying to click the button to release the pipette tip and launch it into the trash can.

Peer Pressure (Part 1) [Elucien]
Tumblr media
I don’t usually give into peer pressure
But I’ll give into yours
A/N: Here is my contribution to the first part of the third writing circle. A massive thank you to everyone participating, this is the biggest one yet and we have more ships than ever. You can find everyone’s work in this masterlist, make sure to go show some love!
Big thank you to @headcanonheadcase for listening to all my thoughts and for the beta on this <3
Word count: 3117
Read on AO3
.
Elain sprayed 70% ethanol into her biosafety hood and wiped it clean from right to left. No one had used it since she did earlier this morning, but you could never clean too much in a cell culture room. The air flow had been on for over five minutes, progressively filtering the air inside the hood so that she could start working without risking contaminating her cultures.
A water bath set to 37°C warmed her solutions while she began filling the hood with material. Pipettes, tips and petri dishes all got sprayed with ethanol before finding their place on the metal. Elain hummed to herself as she worked, she’d done this a hundred times and barely needed to think.
Clean to the right, dirty to the left. It was the policy in her university’s lab. Technically, everyone cleaned the hood before and after using it, but in the interest of sanity (nothing made Elain more crazy than someone’s sloppy work resulting in contamination in her experiments) they all placed their clean material to the right, and anything that was used and to be discarded moved to the left.
Human cells were kept at 37°C in the incubator to her right. The HeLa cell line came from a woman named Henrietta Lacks, someone Elain made sure her interns remembered as she never got the credit she deserved. After being diagnosed with cancer in the 1950s, the immortal cells from Henrietta’s tumor were taken and kept by researchers, without her knowledge or consent of course.
It had been legal at the time, but Elain—and every biologist she knew—still thought it was awful. Yet, they had been used over and over in medical research, and after so many years Elain had no better model for her experiments than this immortal cell line.
They required a bit of maintenance, but after a year of working with them Elain could practically do that in her sleep. She ran through the motions of a passage in no time and placed her new petri dishes on her shelf in the incubator.
Everything that was single use and had touched cells under the hood got discarded in the autoclave bag, and Elain quickly finished cleaning up after herself. Out of the room and with her gloves off, she finally got the chance to check the time on her phone.
It was still the middle of the afternoon, but there was only so much work she could do in the lab. This had been the last task Elain could think of before she was forced to get back to the small office she shared with a couple of other students to sit in front of her laptop. Now, she had no other choice but to work on analyzing her data.
The office was exceedingly gray apart from a few pictures she and the other girls had stuck on the wall in front of their desks. It was no surprise they would rather sit anywhere else on campus, and usually Elain did too, but this time she couldn’t afford a distraction.
It took all of her focus and three youtube videos for her to give up on statistics and bury her face in her hands. Why in the world had she avoided statistics after the second year of her undergrad? She remembered next to nothing about basic statistics, and what she could recall wasn’t even relevant to what she had to do for her current dataset. She was going to have to teach herself how to do this, and it was going to be painful.
Elain could always, of course, ask her supervisor. She just didn’t want to deal with the embarrassment of announcing she wasn’t capable of doing her own statistics because she’d been too lazy to take an advanced class during her undergrad.
The two girls she shared the office with would be no help, one was in the last year of her PhD and always hiding in the library to finish writing her thesis while the other was in her third year and always running around the lab to run as many experiments as she could. Neither had time to help her, or even liked statistics to begin with. No one became a biologist to analyze data, it was all about the lab work.
It was only then that it struck her. Some insane people did become biologists for the data, and she knew of exactly one in this department. While everyone else spent the majority of their time in the lab and made plans to hang out while they were there, Lucien Vanserra was somewhat excluded as he analyzed metaproteomics data.
He wasn’t the friendliest man Elain had ever met, he had his own office and was always hiding in there, but he’d been kind the few times they had interacted. He was the only person who might have the time and skill to help her.
Closing her laptop, Elain pushed her chair back and made her way down the corridor to find him. Lucien’s office was a mirror of hers a few doors down. The only reason he didn’t have to share it was that no one else became a biologist to spend the five years of their PhD running numbers.
“Hi,” she popped her head in after knocking. “Do you have a minute?”
“Sure,” Lucien pushed his chair back slightly to angle himself towards her and hid the tabs he was working on.
Somehow, Elain was too stuck remembering how handsome he was to get inside and speak. His office was just as gray and sad as hers, but his red hair was so pretty it filled the room with color. Russet eyes remained trained on her, just a shade lighter than his brown, flawless skin. His cheekbones were defined without making his face angular, though his jawline was something straight out of a magazine.
Elain was staring at his full, perfect lips when he awkwardly cleared his throat and she remembered what she was here for.
“Right,” she stepped in to let the door fall shut and helped herself to one of the free chairs to sit beside him. “I’m just starting to analyze some of my data, and I was hoping you could give me a hand with statistics, if you have the time.”
“Well, I don’t know how much data you have but I can probably help.” Lucien moved his keyboard to the side and pushed his monitor back slightly to make space for her laptop.
“Thank you so much. I guess it’s not much compared to what you’re used to,” Elain typed in her password and let him look at her excel file. “But I’ve never had to do this before, so I’m lost.”
He hummed to acknowledge he heard her, but his eyes were already scanning the numbers, figuring out how she built her table and how many variables she had before he looked at her again. “What am I looking at exactly?”
“That’s the data from my immunofluorescence,” Elain let him scroll through the rest of the table. “Basically, I did different treatments on my cells, then I fixed them on a slide and added a primary antibody to detect the protein I’m interested in. My secondary antibody is fluorescent, it detects the primary, so the intensity of the fluorescence detected by the microscope correlates to the concentration of my target protein.”
“Alright, so that’s your intensity,” he used the mousepad to point to some numbers. “And that’s your treatments? And you’ve already built some graphs?” He switched between the pages to look at them.
“Yeah, I know which treatment increases the protein concentration the most,” Elain had made the graphs pretty, adjusting the colors so that they’d fit the theme of the poster she was meant to present at a conference in just a few weeks. “But I don’t know if any of it is significant.”
“Right. So you need me to tell you which tests to run?”
Lucien looked at her like it was obvious—which it probably was to him. Her cheeks flushed, though she at least knew the answer to that after her reading and the videos she’d watched.
“No, I read up on that, tried to revive some memories from second year biostatistics. What I’m struggling with is R.” Just speaking the name of the program was enough to make her cringe. R was the most widely used program for statistics, and yet she had no idea how to do anything with it.
It was all it took for Lucien to pinpoint her problem. “You can’t code.”
“I can’t code.” Elain confirmed. “I’d really appreciate it if you could show me just for one dataset, and then I’ll use that as a template for the rest by myself.”
“It shouldn’t be too long, we could do it now,” Lucien agreed, emailing himself her file so that he could open it on his own computer. “You’ve used R before, right?”
“I used SPSS,” Elain made a face that told Lucien everything else he needed to know.
A class on R was enough to know how to run basic tests, it introduced just enough coding for it to make sense, but SPSS didn’t make you code for anything. If that was all she had ever used, she wouldn’t even know how to import her data into R.
“Alright, it might take longer than I thought,” Lucien said. “Maybe we can take some time tomorrow? I have a meeting in the morning and I need to finish a quick presentation for it. I could help you after lunch, if that works for you.”
“Yes, of course, whatever’s best for you.” Elain promptly nodded and reached for her laptop to get out of his hair. “Thank you so much Lucien.”
“Happy to help.”
.
Lucien took the next afternoon to help her, and the next, and the next. By Thursday, Elain’s brain had melted into a pile of goo and she was sure Lucien had to be sick of her. On top of everything he had shown her, she had spent her mornings trying to understand the next steps by herself only to find herself inevitably stuck.
“Fuck this,” Elain swore, dropping her head to her desk. She let out a loud groan to calm down, then straightened her back, took a deep breath and went back to staring at her screen. She deflated like a balloon on her exhale, the jumble of lines of codes making no more sense to her than it had in the past hour.
A knock came on her door, and Elain prayed it was someone coming to crash in her office to procrastinate so she could use it as an excuse to stop working. Lucien opened the door instead, an easy smile on his face.
“Hey, do you need me today?”
“Yes please,” Elain didn’t hesitate to say. He walked right in and stole a chair to sit beside her. “You’re an angel.”
“It’s no big deal,” Lucien ducked his head, a couple of strands of hair falling in his face. The rest was held back by a claw clip, and Elain thought of how unfair it was that every style suited him so well when she typically hated men with hair this long. “It’s this one, isn’t it?” Lucien pointed to one of the lines he had added to her code yesterday.
“Yes,” Elain sighed and tore her eyes away from him to focus. “I’ve been losing my mind for an hour, I think.”
“When we’re done you need to go get fresh air or do something fun, no one learning how to do this can do it all at once,” Lucien reached for the laptop, and Elain pushed it toward him.
“Well lucky for me there’s a party downstairs tonight with some dangerously cheap tequila.”
On campus parties organized by the science departments were very… unique. The space they had for it was large, but there were never enough students to fill it, which always made things awkward. Pair that with a student’s spotify staying open on a laptop for anyone to add songs to as the main source of music and it wasn’t hard to imagine how much anyone would cringe on a night like this.
Luckily, undergrads were just there to fill the space and grad students stuck together to drink and forget their work without having to go through the effort of dragging themselves to a bar or club. Elain had been roped in at the start of her first year, and she rarely missed those occasions anymore.
“Ah, sounds fun.” Lucien’s voice came out flat, his lie obvious.
“Are you coming?” Elain tried anyway. She’d been wrong in thinking he wasn’t friendly before she asked him for help, Lucien was lovely and easy to be around, and she was sure the only reason he was always working by himself was that no one else ever remembered to invite him.
“I don’t think so.”
“Why not?” Elain pressed, pushing her laptop back so he couldn’t use it as a crutch? “You should,”
Lucien sighed and looked at her. “There’s always a weird theme, I’m not dressed for it.” The sanitized excuse would have worked on anyone else, but she wasn’t ready to give up.
“Neither am I, for now.” Elain was in a plain pastel pink t-shirt and light blue jeans. Nothing about it screamed themed party, but she’d make it work. “I brought accessories, and you don’t need to fit the theme to come.”
Surely he knew that last part. Except… maybe he didn’t, and Elain gasped before she spoke again. “Lucien. Have you never been to any of these?”
“Guess not,”
“You’re in your third year!” She exclaimed. “How is that even possible?”
A shrug, then a helpless look towards Elain’s laptop as if the lines of code on the screen could save him. “I’m not that close with everyone else in the labs.”
“Well, neither was I until my first campus party.” Elain reasoned, toning her excitement down to plead with him. “Please come, I’ll be there, and it’ll be fun.”
Lucien, like the responsible man he was, pulled her work back within comfortable reach so they could get to the end of it. “We can finish this, and then I’ll think about it.”
“How much thinking will you need?”
“You’re not going to focus until I say yes, are you?” Lucien gave her a look, his head tilted as he read the expressions on her face. Elain kept her mouth shut and bit back a smile, her eyes full of hope. “Fine,” he caved too easily. “What’s the theme this time?”
“Tropical. I have hair pins with seashells on them and I bought this coconut shaped cup,” Elain opened one of her drawers. “Lucky for you, it came with a matching pineapple.”
“Of course it did.”
.
A very unproductive work session later, Lucien had fully given in for the party and Elain was rummaging through her things to accessorize them both. In an effort to get in the mood, Lucien was already sipping water from his pineapple and he’d stuck one of the seashell bobby pins in his hair.
“We can do better than that,” Elain’s curls had been pulled back slightly, uncovering her face, and it was now time for her to focus on Lucien’s hair. “Can I braid your hair?”
“Does it look like I know how to say no to you?” He lifted his pineapple and earned a grin.
“I’ll be quick.” Elain promised as she took the claw clip out of his hair.
Long strands of red hair cascaded down his back. What she guessed was usually straight, maybe slightly wavy, was now stuck in the shape it’d be held in all day. She brushed it gently, but it was barely tangled. Whatever products he used on his hair, they were perfect for him.
“Tell me if I pull too hard,” Elain parted a few strands near his temple and made quick work of braiding toward the back of his head.
Lucien didn’t say a word as she worked, closing his eyes and letting her use hair ties and pins until she was satisfied. Her fingers were used to the motions, she had grown up with two sisters and while they weren’t close anymore, there was a time when the three of them would spend the entire afternoon braiding each other’s hair in complicated updos.
“There,” Elain tucked the last strand away with her last seashell pin. “No more excuses, you fit the theme now.”
“Thank you,” Lucien opened his phone’s camera to check her work, and he could find no flaw in it.
He would have never done something like this himself—the style was more feminine than what he was used to—but it looked beautiful.
“Where are the girls from your office?”
“They’re not coming,” Elain applied a quick layer of pink lip gloss. “Emily is too busy finishing her thesis, and Mara is always with her boyfriend when she’s not in the lab.”
“Do you have one?” Lucien asked, making her frown.
“One what?”
“Boyfriend—or girlfriend, I guess,” he got up from his chair and busied himself with twirling the straw of his pineapple cup.
The coconut looked ridiculous in Elain’s hands, it was too big for her to comfortably hold in one hand, and the pineapple was a little bigger. Somehow, Lucien’s hands still dwarfed it.
“No,” Elain looked away from his hands and shrugged. “What about you?” She added innocently, as if she wasn’t burning to know if he had a girlfriend. It also wouldn’t shock her if Lucien was far too handsome and smart to be straight.
“No girlfriend,” he provided simply before he switched the subject. “Where’s everyone else?”
“They went out to get food. You’d know if you ever checked the group,” Elain waved the messenger chat in front of him. “You’ve been in it for ages, you know?”
“I might have muted that,” Lucien looked almost apologetic. Truth was he didn’t feel included whenever they invited everyone for plans and the more he waited to show up, the less welcome he felt.
“Fair enough, it gets annoying.” She moved on to grab her office keys, slipped her phone in her back pocket and grabbed her coconut. “Ready? There should be enough people now that it won’t be awkward,”
“Isn’t awkward the point of this whole thing?”
“Just be patient, it’ll be great when the alcohol kicks in.” Elain seemed to be buzzing now, the excitement of the party starting to show.
“This is going to be a disaster,” Lucien stepped out of the office first.
Elain only grinned. “Exactly.”

hi andra! first of all i wanted to tell you i love your writing! second of all, i'm doing a master's in biomedical science as well and while i find it great, i find the project really challanging, and since i know you also work with cells, can you please give me some tips on how to split my cells without infection? i don't know what i'm doing wrong and my lab is not very supportive. thank you so much!
omg hi angel!! thank you so much first of all and second of all, i'm sorry your lab isn't supportive, that must suck. pls do know that getting infections happens to the best of us and it's pretty inevitable, but i can tell you some tips that help me?
always make sure you spray down the hoods with IMS. all of the hood, the inside, the glass panel, both on the inside and the outside.
figure out what kind of infection is first and if anyone else is experiencing it bc it might be a lab/incubator issue
spray down everything you put in (pipettes, pipette guns etc), and make sure you don't leave anything in the hood after you're done
make sure the technicians (if you have technicians) are autoclaving everything properly and that you don't use anything that's not sterile that makes contact with the cells
always change pipettes in between steps, and do not touch the rim of the bottles of media/pbs/trypsin whatever you use. - probably the step a lot of people fail at
make sure you don't spill liquid on the flask lid filter, because that messes it up and bacteria could get in the flask
use penstrep in your media for antibacterial infections - although that can mask poor technique so initially i wouldn't
i avoid putting my media and trypsin or anything in the waterbath if i can help it - any warm liquid, and especially if it's not maintained properly is a paradise for bacterial growth, so if i were you, i'd just come like 30 mins before and remove everything from the fridge and leave it on your bench until you're ready to use them
OH! do not do anything near the edge of the hood, always do everything as far back as your hands can reach!!! very important
do not do cell culture without a lab coat, and have a different lab coat you only wear in tissue culture
check regularly for mycoplasma (your lab should do mycoplasma testing)
hope this helps love xx let me know how it goes and enjoy your project, i loved my master's project so so much and i hope you do too x

Troubleshooting Common Issues with Liquid Handling Instruments
Liquid handling instruments, such as pipettes and dispensers, are essential tools in laboratories worldwide. However, even the most reliable instruments can encounter issues. In here, we’ll discuss some common problems you may face with liquid handling instruments and provide troubleshooting tips for the same. 
Common Issues & Troubleshooting Tips
1. Inaccurate Pipetting:
Causes: Tip leakage, air bubbles, incorrect technique, or pipette calibration issues.
Troubleshooting:
Tip leakage: Ensure a tight seal between the pipette tip and the pipette shaft. Use high-quality tips that are compatible with your instrument.
Air bubbles: Avoid trapping air bubbles during aspiration by immersing the tip fully into the liquid. Use a plunger speed that prevents bubble formation.
Incorrect technique: Refer to the user manual for proper usage of micropipette technology. Practice regularly to improve your skills.
Calibration issues: If the problem persists, have your instrument calibrated by a qualified technician. 
2. Tip Clogging:
Causes: Clogged pipette tips, viscous liquids, or particulate matter in the liquid.
Troubleshooting:
Tip clogging: Use high-quality tips that are free from defects. Avoid overfilling the tips.
Viscous liquids: Use pipette tips designed for viscous liquids. Pre-wet the tip with the liquid before aspirating.
Particulate matter: Filter the liquid before pipetting to remove contaminants.
3. Instrument Leakage:
Causes: Damaged seals, worn-out parts, or incorrect assembly.
Troubleshooting:
Damaged seals: Inspect the precision instrument for visible damage to seals or O-rings. Replace damaged parts as needed.
Worn-out parts: Regular maintenance and calibration can help identify and replace worn-out parts.
Incorrect assembly: Refer to the user manual for proper assembly instructions. Ensure all parts are securely fastened.
4. Instrument Error Messages:
Causes: Various issues, including calibration problems, sensor malfunctions, or software errors.
Troubleshooting:
Calibration problems: Have your laboratory liquid handling instruments calibrated by a qualified technician. 
Sensor malfunctions: Check for any visible damage to sensors or cables. If necessary, replace the faulty component. 
Software errors: Update the instrument's software to the latest version. If the problem persists, contact the manufacturer's technical support. 
5. Instrument Performance Degradation:
Causes: Lack of maintenance, contamination, or general wear and tear.
Troubleshooting:
Maintenance: Follow the manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule. Clean and disinfect the instrument regularly.

Different Types of Pipette Tips and When to Use Them
Like deciding what to wear for the day, walking into a laboratory means you have to choose the right pipette tips for your experiments. This is about precision in avoiding mistakes and contamination rather than personal preferences when working in a lab. There are various types of tips, each designed with a specific application in mind.
Tumblr media
Below is an ultimate guide on how to make sense of different kinds of pipette tips and their uses.
1. Non-Sterile vs. Sterile Tips
Non-Sterile Tips: These can be used for general laboratory procedures where sterility is not necessary. Using non-sterile tips may save money if you are dealing with non-sensitive samples or performing routine tasks.
Sterile Tips:
Required when doing tests where contamination would lead to compromised results, such as in microbiology, molecular biology or clinical settings. Such tips are pre-sterilized and certified free from contaminants like RNase, DNase, endotoxins etc. Although it might seem appealing to autoclave non-sterile tips onto sterile ones, inconsistent outcomes may occur because autoclaving does not have quality control measures.
2. Filter Tips
Filter Tips They are designed in such a way that prevents aerosols and liquids from entering the pipette body and thus safeguarding your samples as well as the pipette. Whenever you are dealing with volatile substances, corrosives or infectious materials it is important to use them. In some cases like PCR experiments where there is risk of contamination leading to false results, presence of filter tips is compulsory.
3. Long Tips
Long tips can get to the bottom of narrow tubes and deepwell plates without causing contamination towards the pipette’s shaft. In case you are working in a laboratory where you transfer liquids from tall containers, it is advisable to use long tips that maintain sterility and accuracy.
4. Short Tips
If you have short tips, ergonomic pipetting will be made possible, and hence there will be less strain on your arm or hand especially if you are using small well plates or multichannel pipettes. By sitting closer to the bench, they ensure exact pipetting making them the best for such fast robots.
5. Low Retention Tips
Low retention tips refer to those that comprise of special polypropylene blend or else coated with a hydrophobic surface intended for minimizing liquid retention. It is particularly essential when handling viscous or low surface tension liquids like concentrated protein or DNA solutions; this kind of tips ensures maximum sample recovery as well as accurate pipetting which may influence sensitive assays.
6. Wide Bore Tips
In delicate specimens like cell suspensions, standard ones can shear cells mainly due to their small opening; while wide bore tips have bigger holes thus providing easy passage for the solution through them hence preventing damage among other things when dealing with delicate samples such as cells in suspension or very thick liquids.
What Counts Concerning Quality and Fit
Quality of the tips that you get is as important as choosing the right type of tip for your pipette. This is because, by selecting poorly fitting or low quality tips, you risk taking inaccurate measures, adding to the strain of pipetting and contaminating samples in the process. Thus, it is advised that a high-quality tip should be compatible with your pipette for better outcomes and accurate results. Keep in mind therefore, how well the tips fit into your pipette so as to ensure consistency in lab work.
The importance of selecting the correct pipette tip does not depend on someone’s liking but rather impacts on getting reliable results. In order to ensure successful and efficient lab work it is necessary to identify various types of pipette tips and their applications.

Universal Pipette Tips In Laboratory Applications
The choice of pipette tips is a critical consideration that directly influences the accuracy, precision, and reliability of liquid handling processes. Among the various options available, Filter Pipette Tips and Universal Pipette Tips have gained prominence for their distinct advantages in addressing specific challenges associated with pipetting.
Filter Pipette Tips are equipped with a barrier, often made of hydrophobic material, situated at the end of the tip. This design offers several advantages, making Filter Pipette Tips particularly advantageous in applications where contamination prevention is paramount.
Aerosol Containment:
The primary benefit of Filter Pipette Tips lies in their ability to prevent the aerosolization of liquids during pipetting. The hydrophobic filter acts as a barrier, trapping any liquid that may be drawn into the pipette tip during aspiration. This is particularly crucial when working with biohazardous or volatile substances, minimizing the risk of sample contamination and exposure.
Reduced Cross-Contamination:
Filter Pipette Tips contribute to the aseptic technique by reducing the risk of cross-contamination between samples. The hydrophobic filter prevents liquids from reaching the pipette shaft, ensuring that only the intended sample is aspirated. This is essential in applications such as PCR, where even trace amounts of contamination can impact the reliability of results.
