Have you ever wondered how types of scientific glassware got their names? This article tells the stories of men like La Marquis de Burette, Justus von Liebig and Jan Wółumétrič.

So... one thing that was always frustrating was the use of clunky stands, boxes and foil. We like to be able to move the LED and sample around, so we decided to print out own holder for the LED and sample area...
Version 2 is currently in design 😀

A bit late... But we recently bought this guy, he has been useful for a variety of pieces of equipment... And yes, that is a sea view from the lab window of the new lab😁

Equally, I would like to extend my thanks to the School of Chemistry at St Andrews for all of the organisational support, it's not easy to bring a team and a bunch of chemicals across countries! A special thanks to @ADS_StAndrews and his team for logistical help😀🙏
