Hey Jessica, how are you? So great to see you at your new role! Seems like you are getting the hang of Environmental Analytical Chem work! Hehe! Do you use MeOH to extract your salmon samples in PFTE (teflon) tubes? Are your cleanup columns also PFTE? We usually use glass columns for PCB work that we load with silica from scratch!
Hey!! I’m good thanks, how are you? Long time no speak! The tubes aren’t PTFE, they’re PP and I do an extensive alkaline wash of all glassware and plastic before use. I do find I have some small contamination for some of the smaller PFAS I’m working on but only for around 2 out of 30 (and not the most important ones!). Thanks for sharing your methods 😋🫶🏻
Also, I completely get the part when it is hard to film when too many people are working in the lab or you have just too much to do to actually stop and record and explain!
Question for all PhD students in STEM field: How do human👥 civilizations evolve from Middle Dark Ages to Industrial🏭 Age and then onto Modern 20th and 21st century? Answering this question completely will help you to realize😃 the critical and crucial connection between a PhD📜 (in STEM 🧬📡field) and industry🏭. "From where does the industry comes from?" Try answering it completely and on the spot under 10 seconds.
Don't know why I'm so obsessed with you❤
🤩
Love it...please keep making chemistry related vlogs ❤
Always ✨

The cleanup columns are also specifically for PFAS work!
@@drjessicagomezb Gotcha! I might have to talk to you one to one in a couple of months. I am trying to wrap up my PhD. So busy times! Haha!
@Oindrila_Ghosh no worries at all, message me anytime! Best of luck with wrapping everything up ❤️

More video upload for your personal chemistry experiment pls mam.
Big fan mem for 🇮🇳india
And chemistry phd is big achievement💪
❤❤❤
😁😁😁
I like ur channel, i’m a biochemist by the way🤩
Hiii!!! 👋🏻 thanks for watching!
