Top List: Tips for Maintaining Water Purity in the Lab - SelectScience

Image
14 Apr 2015 Water is an essential component to many lab applications, and most of us will use it all the time, from diluting sensitive samples and preparing media, to cleaning laboratory equipment. Tap water, however, can contain many impurities and contaminants that may impact the accuracy of resulting data. Laboratory water purity levels have been classified by numerous professional organizations, and they all have similar parameters for the maximum contaminant levels permitted. For example, the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) International classifies water on its level of purity, ranging from Type 1-4. Understanding these purity levels is critical to selecting the right type of water to meet the needs of a specific application.

My car is absolutely covered in pollen every day from being parked outside, and it's uncomfortable to think that that much pollen is floating around and into our eyes, nose, and all over our clothes.

Best Air Filters for Your Central AC and Furnace - Consumer Reports

Image
Hidden away in your basement or attic, the air filter in your HVAC system is something you probably don't think about much. But a good air filter keeps your central air conditioner (and furnace) humming along by protecting the mechanicals from dust and debris. And the best filters trap indoor pollutants such as dust, pet dander, and pollen, helping to clean the air in your home so it's better for you to breathe. That's important because the concentration of air pollutants inside your home can be two to five times higher than concentrations typically found outdoors, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

We also calculate the annual costs of replacement filters, based on the manufacturer...
