Autoclave Update(4/13/2016)
by Xingya Liu 13 Apr '16

13 Apr '16

All, The autoclave issue has been resolved and we can again use it on the normal daily schedule. Please remember to during daily start up to flush the autoclave by /fully/ opening the drain flush when prompted and /completely/ closing the drain flush after the flush is completed and before running the autoclave. We have now re-setup the NREL processing time (121C for 60 minutes treatment) and it is named 'NREL'. The other 'liquid' settings are 15 minutes and 30 minutes. Thanks, LORRE Safety Committee

LORRE Autoclave Note (4/8/2016)
by Xingya Liu 08 Apr '16

08 Apr '16

All, The autoclave is working now but the system still has some problems that will need to be improved. As a result we would like to run the autoclave as little as possible. Please plan to use the autoclave on *Monday, Wednesday or Friday* so we can combine as many autoclave runs as possible. If there is an emergency the autoclave can be run on Tuesday or Thursday but if you can plan ahead your experiments to work with this schedule please do. If you plan to use the autoclave please find Tommy or Linda for assistance. After the autoclave is completely fixed we will go back to the normal schedule. Thanks, LORRE Safety Committee
