True biological soup sounds like a great title for a horror movie. Honestly I am just hoping the vacuum integrity held up on the glass.

Man I feel your pain so hard. My old incubator literally cooked my entire batch of plates last month because the relay switch welded itself shut.

Just unplug the thing and let physics do the work slowly. Impatience is how we lose good samples in this hobby.

That is horrifying and impressive at the same time. Did any of the vials survive the humidity party?

My lab partner once left the freezer door ajar over a three day holiday weekend. We came back to a literal ecosystem growing in the door seal.

Never use a butter knife for that trust me on this one. One slip and you are wearing expensive peptides and band aids.

At least yours froze instead of melting and turning into a weird biological soup. That was a fun weekend of deep cleaning and regret.

Physics takes too long when you need to run assays by noon. I support aggressive melting strategies.
