[Histonet] Re: Humidity levels in the lab

[Robert Richmond]

>>In the summertime [the humidity in our laboratory] is at around 60-70%, which seems to work well. In the winter time it is less than 0 and I run a humidifier full out to try to achieve 20%.<<

If your relative humidity is less than zero, you're probably putting
too much thiotimoline in your water bath!

(If you're too young for this literary allusion, see

) and make the acquaintance of the late great Isaac Asimov!
