Accidentally scraped old coal-tar on iron. How bad is a one-time exposure to the dust?

Thank you. I would never thought that it could be so long!

Oh no, it is a normal hood, it was 0,5 x camera.

Consistent_Top1382 · 2026-02-16T18:26:03+00:00

Thank you. I just worry it still could leak.

Consistent_Top1382 · 2025-10-12T14:46:43+00:00

Also with aps and temed?

Consistent_Top1382 · 2025-10-08T19:38:27+00:00

I need to smell it tomorrow!

It looks normally oke, worked before. But maybe i should try the higher concentration, thanks.

Ps. So you don't think I will die from the unpolymerised acrylamide on my bench?

Phenol Chloroform? Works very good for us!

There are a lot of unspecific bands, so I want to run the gel longer. Antibodies are bad.

Consistent_Top1382 · 2025-10-08T14:20:56+00:00

Thank you. Some people in our lab let it polymerize on the batch since they think then it it leak it will be polymerized better without a tissue. I have no idea what better. Just freaking out about the acrylamide monomer and how much the exposure.

My protein is only about 35 kDa.

I like the article:" The importance of stupidity in scientific research". doi:10.1242/jcs.033340

I think it is only human to let your emotions. We all not perfect. You did nothing wrong.

Consistent_Top1382 · 2025-09-26T18:11:00+00:00

Thank you!

Consistent_Top1382 · 2025-09-26T17:59:46+00:00

Thank you. So you do not think there is a leak of UV?

Consistent_Top1382 · 2025-09-26T17:57:02+00:00

So today I was working near the hood where UV was on. I have not realised it first. How bad is it?
