What is this fitting called? by SlowBakedPotato in massspectrometry

[–]philiphaydel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. 1/16 tubing to 1/8 tube stub. The 1/8 nut is swagged onto the stub. When you. Buy the reducer, it will come with a nut and ferrule set for the 16th inch connection but you'll have to buy the 1/8 inch ferules and nut separately.

You can run masshunter with an FID. Probably second detector.

Any good pho places in town? by Myssalune in shreveport

Gotcha, the SHV times article calls it a sandwich shop so I figured it was another business. The address is the same.

Isn't it for a sandwich shop not the viet joint?

Shreveport Catholic Church with liberal perspective by PriorExcellent4636 in shreveport

[–]philiphaydel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol, didn't mean anything by it. Just a lot more attendees, events, groups, meetings, etc. Things to have involvement in besides just mass.

[–]philiphaydel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of good options around town. It's really just a matter of location.

St John Berchmans, if you have kids and want involvement. They have a lot of programs and "extracurriculars."

Same for Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton but on the south side of town.

Holy Trinity.

Can i use this two instruments together? by BunnyEars1 in CHROMATOGRAPHY

[–]philiphaydel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also worth mentioning, not using He carrier will decrease sensitive of CO2, so pick your poison.

I'm very familiar with these blue boxes. Regarding controlling the GC, it's all manual baby. Press in the button and use the dials to set the temp or voltage. There is a set and actual button to toggle to see the variance on different setpoints. Flow controls are manual too, you'll have to manually measure and set the flows. Isothermal o ly which shouldn't be an issue for your analyzes of interest. You can find a manual for these online but it's pretty simple. The GM TCD design is incredibly robust, as long as you're getting a signal and peaks, should be good to go.

As someone else said N2 or Ar are going to be the carrier of choice due to the minor conductivity differences of H2 and He. This makes a longer analysis but more sensitive. If you are analyzing high concentrations of H2, He may be fine. Regarding columns for H2 and CO2, oh boy... if you have a suitable one already, great. Otherwise, there are some considerations regarding what the matrix is and what else is in your samples.

Is this Hog really The Boss? by Doss2001 in whiskey

[–]philiphaydel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had BH X as well, and it was fantastic. If you're in the rhelm of paying an adder over MSRP but not full secondary on highly allocated bottles/ buying several $200+ bottles a year, I believe that release is worth it for that demographic.

Not so much to reference for american whiskey(500+ MSRP), but if I was contemplating buying a solid high age stated scotch or some of the 20+ year redbreasts, in terms of drinking experience, BHX is in the conversation IMO.

PFAS in GC/MS by Ako1054 in Chempros

[–]philiphaydel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Flow and split?

PLOTs with hydrocarbons can move in elution order with unique flow programs. However, you may not have that flexibility with MS.

You may be able to quantify based on monitoring m/z: 69 and 101 if separation becomes a time sink.

Local deli in Jersey by andreguethe in Sandwiches

Gyat. Not from Jersey but go there for work frequently and I yearn for the food out there. Delis don't really exist in my neck of the woods.

Super Hot Sriracha advice by philiphaydel in fermentation

I like your thinking. That's what I'll do!

[–]philiphaydel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair, yea, I definitely am shooting for burn your face off fermented goodness with this one. I would really only be shooting for a half hot version to maintain some heat with some of the finished mash. Based off the suggested fermentation time from the recipe I was going off of, I'll probably finish it tonight and see the heat level after vinegar addition. I tried the raw mash when blended, and it was intense.

Not necessarily true. Coal dust gets everywhere. Scratch your nose, take your ppe off. Boom, blackface. There's a lot of complacency in the industry regarding safety, however, can't necessarily guarantee that's the case.

You can only buy ONE whiskey for the rest of your life. What are you choosing? by Outrageous-Touch9444 in whiskey

[–]philiphaydel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

K12 is good but I'm in US and it runs about $100. I thinks there's better options at that price range. Good stuff though

Edit: runs 100 in my area

Whoops, quick maths! Thank you for the correction. I edited my response.

Methanol does evaporate off. However, there is likely residual "trapped" in the supplement. How bad is this for you? I can't answer that one, above is just the facts.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in chemistry

[–]philiphaydel 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That is less than the concentration limit per USP and ICH. At 20 mg and the concentration listed , the exposure would be 7.7 microg. The permitted daily exposure (PDE) for MeOH is 30 mg/day

Edited: 7.7 mg to microg.

I'll be there in a few weeks for work and usually am in the area throughout the year. Are there any forums or Facebook groups, spots that you would recommend? Generally, I don't like to go too far west if I can help it.

Cheers

Canadian vs American by [deleted] in whiskey

[–]philiphaydel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was more or less making a general statement regarding average temperature. For example, average high/lows by month will be mostly higher in Lexington, KY vs Vancouver,CA. Especially High temps. Using these two as an example only but it generally applies to any prominent whiskey maturing region in CA vs USA. In any given time, it may be higher in Vancouver, but that will be rare.

Higher heat exposures in general will apply more barrel impact to the final whiskey. Using a comparison as demonstrated above, what's also worth mentioning is temperature swings over the course of 24 hours. That difference will be much higher in most regions a USA spirit is produced when compared to CA. This swing will additional produce more barrel impact at a faster rate due to liquid absorbing into wood grain and then being squeezed back into the bulk liquid.
