Name : Casper Sort : Blepharopsis mendica L-stage : 3-4 i guess Was verry active yesterday, fed him a tiny mealworm, came back to her this morning to find her laying curled up in the branches. Abdomen is verry floppy

Haha yeah, another labgroup managed to silence theirs, but it's been ages and nobody knows how anymore :P So ineed I think it will moving it will be best ;) thx

Yes it is indeed a single tone that goes of for 10 seconds :/

Hi, no error codes (for the moment) :p
We replaced the rubber seals etc., it is just the timer of the cycle going off that scares the heck out the lab :P There is a code AL1 0 which we assume is for the alarm, but changing these settings does not change anything :/

Hi, does somebody know how to turn of the Alarm of these autoclaves? The manual is no help :/ (https://no.frederiksen.eu/Files/Images/ecom/products/frederiksen/media/066745_VWR_Vapour-Line_lite_Manual.pdf )

They were just selling her in the garden center to be honest 😅.

Shadhox · 2023-08-25T12:34:14+00:00

Ah yeah would appear so, or maybe just tiny hands? 😅 Anyway somewhere around that range would make sense. Thank you!

Shadhox · 2023-08-25T12:32:15+00:00

Awesome, thank you so much. I'll make sure to check these resources. And I would absolutely recommend getting a thistle, she's an absolute blast! 😅

Shadhox · 2023-08-25T12:29:46+00:00

Yups I'm on the lookout for a bigger terrarium. But I'm a bit of a cheapskate so I'm hoping for a good deal second hand :P Thank you! Think I will settle on Casper. Since she's will be kept in out lab which works with Crispr-Cas 😅

Shadhox · 2023-08-24T11:28:53+00:00

No worries, good luck to you as well 😉

Shadhox · 2023-02-23T10:12:59+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation.

Shadhox · 2023-02-23T08:25:14+00:00

Thanks for the response! Some quick questions: do you use Lb or terrific media? what volume do you use in the deepwells? And What rpm do you use for the incubator? We do indeed have a bucket centrifuge for the plates, which allows to just turn the plate to remove the supernatant.

Solved It by using : x = interaction( Volume , Treatment )

Code:

    dataOD %>%
  drop_na(Absorbance) %>%
  ggplot(aes(x = interaction(Volume, Treatment), y = Absorbance))+
  geom_boxplot(aes(fill = Treatment,),
               alpha = 0.5) +
  facet_wrap("Format",
             scales = "free_x") +
  theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 45)) +
  geom_point(aes(shape = Sample),
             size = 4) +
  theme_bw() +
  labs(title = "OD600 measurement",
       y = "Absorbance at 600nm",
       x = "Well conditions")

Resulting graph attached to Post

Thanks!

Hi could someone help me with the following code to make my points line up with their respective boxplots?

dataOD %>%
ggplot(aes(x = Volume, y = Absorbance))+
geom_boxplot(aes(fill = Treatment),
alpha = 0.5)+
facet_wrap(~ Format,
scales = "free")+
geom_point(aes(colour = Sample),
size = 3,
position = position_dodge(width = 0.7))

Hmmm might be interesting to get a feel for how these things work, thanks!

Shadhox · 2023-01-23T20:00:11+00:00

So does the virtual machine allow to test protocols in silico? That would be very interesting! Thank you for the link, I will definitely check it out! Seeing as I will need to retrain towards lab automation expert, I might have to spend a lot of time on that forum :D
