Sweet Reagent Bottle

[atticmint]

Well as usual I have gone a week and a half without finding anything at work, then tonight I found so much I couldnt get it all clean before the end of my shift.
Heres the best one of the bunch, in 15 years at the plant I have never found an embossed MERCURY CHLORIDE. I also found a few 1920's British poison/reagent bottles,15 to 30 glass stoppers and a crap load of newer Pyrex. Will post pics of the rest on the weekend.

Be careful with those things, even the residue of some of that stuff is pretty nasty.
I guess in your job they must train you in handling toxic stuff.

Yeppers, had ongoing training for years. Everyone of these babies has had a chromic acid bath, a mild caustic rinse and then a rinse of regular soap and water, all before they come home []
