Chromatography for everyone

Whenever people ask what we do, our normal response is, “We manufacture the best Thin Layer Chromatography products in the world.”

Which leads to either the blank stare or “Oh yea, I remember separating color from leaves once.”leaf

Well, our friends at Do It Science have posted a step-by-step method anyone can use to separate the color in leaves.

Click Here for the easy to follow instructions – great for parents, teachers, and others who want to share the basic principles of chromatography.

Moving to a four day week!

It’s official!

As part of Analtech’s ongoing efforts to conserve energy and reduce our carbon footprint, we will start working four-day weeks in May!

This means a change in hours for us (10 hours a day for four days instead of 8 hours a day for five days) – but we don’t forsee any changes in the quality or timeliness of delivery for our customers.

What we do see is one less day a week for employees to commute to work and one less day of running heating/air conditioning.

The men and women here are pretty excited about the move – for us it means one more day a week to spend with our friends and family.

What about you? What is your company doing to conserve energy?
