Below I’ve listed the key chemicals or elements found in a commonly available product, which may (or may not) be slightly UK-centric. All chemicals drawn below are part of the same product. I’ve drawn the chemical structures of principal components where simple and appropriate; given the E number or CAS number (however tempting Sigma-Aldrich catalogue numbers would be) if no [...]

If you’ve been reading here for a while, you’ll know that one of my projects is to work with the Blists Hill museum to identify the contents of jars in its Victorian Pharmacy. This is a fairly slow process, mainly due to the constraints of other pressing tasks such as teaching, but it is [...] Below I’ve listed the key chemicals or elements found in a commonly available product, which may (or may not) be slightly UK-centric.

Remember these? Or if you’re unfamiliar with the ‘flying saucers’ (hence a clue on Twitter: Fox Mulder’s favourite sweeties), they are essentially sherbet wrapped up in coloured rice paper (starch really). Sweeties is really a misnomer [...] Below I’ve listed the key chemicals or elements found in a commonly available product, which may (or may not) be slightly UK-centric.

See if you can guess what this is! If no one gets it within 24 hours, I will post a clue. If you guess on Twitter (@kjhaxton), please DM your guess so others can play. Oxygen 65 Carbon 18 Hydrogen [...] Below I’ve listed the key chemicals or elements found in a commonly available product, which may (or may not) be slightly UK-centric.

After about 5 minutes we felt our throats were very scratchy and our eyes were burning and we couldn’t really work out why. There was no obvious odour in the apartment although it was perhaps colder than usual. [...] Below I’ve listed the key chemicals or elements found in a commonly available product, which may (or may not) be slightly UK-centric. All chemicals drawn below are part of the same product.

This paper was a summary of other analytical chemistry papers. When I was sketching out the components (generally I look up the Smiles or InChI strings and [...] |
