I guess they have cold storage somewhere near us because I've had stuff arrive same-day before 🤯

Thanks a lot to @atinygreencell.bsky.social for these awesome chromoprotein strains!

visigrid.app - I've been playing around with this a bit recently I guess you could easily script something in lua to put the guardrails in, or write an llm skill to check the sheet and fix it for you

Ooo nice. Interested to know how easy it would be to swap the filter out for something compatible with Sypro orange for thermal shift

Also the pump stalls when it's started above ~50%, but will happily go up to 100% if increased gradually from lower. So seems something is limiting the peak current delivered. Chatgpt said capacitors but chem eng resident electronics whizz says not with three-phase motors. Software limits somewhere?

Project for this week: getting this TFF from ~2009 working in a modern lab. All the hardware and software work but getting data off windows CE is an interesting one 😅 Managed to create a local network with a smb share on a raspberry pi and get csvs off it for now. Next step pi direct to PLC

Who's working on reinforcement learning for protein expression? I'd love to chat!

I got hit by some rather sudden and extreme financial hardship so if anyone is in need of remote wetlab contract research, strictly BSL1, do let me know. Currently scrambling for gigs. Plant, Bacterial, Archaeal Non-model Bioeng Custom Lab Hardware Turn Key Genetic Design Please repost for reach 💚

Thanks, that's interesting because it should also work at higher densities than absorbance!

Really cool, thank you! Forgive my ignorance, but what's the light source in this design? Is it based on backscatter from an LED on the sensor board?
