I believe NileRed is the largest chemistry channel on KZbin. 6.5+ million subscribers (July 2024). His "lab" is an industrial space, in the greater Montreal area. He has a staff of at least 4 employees. Chloroform is probably the least concerning volatile chemical he has dealt with. All chemical reactions are done under fume hoods, in a lab better equipped than most universities. Breaking expensive glassware is routine, and he'll spend thousands on a piece of equipment, that will be used on only one video ! HowtoCookThat channel's review on NileRed's "expensive cookie" video is priceless. Great chemist. Terrible cook.

The yellow color from this reaction 11:02 is caused by the partial oxidation of free Thiamine molecules to form Thiochrome, which is naturally a pale yellow due to its conjugated 3-ring system that acts as a chromophore for visible wavelengths centered around 370nm, extending well into the blue range. That leaves us with mostly red and green, which we see as yellow.

Pipette the bottom layer once it's done and separated, dry in anhydrous sodium sulfate, and fractionate out at 61 Celsius. Very useful stuff to have around

Itwas very odd tho she genuinely seemed unaware of her behaviour until i had recordings.. (btw it was a huge 3x300mg prescription plus 2xOxycontin 60mg!.

Honestly my favorite part of watching these "professional reacts to" type channels is when those professionals react to things that are just a bit outside of their field. Its always really interesting to watch them learn something new and cool while connecting what they have to offer to the subject. So it'd be interesting to see your takes on other NileRed videos that AREN'T explicitly medical based, because I'm sure there are other compounds or processes that come up that are related to the pharmaceutical field. Or any other field adjacent topics or channels which might not be your expertise but are of interest to you.

Prior to this I had to go to the doctor every time I had a new MRSA infection just to break the boil. Afterward I had maybe 5-7 further infections and only had to go to the doctor for the one on my forehead.

Talking to chemists and watching weird chemistry youtube made me realise how common a substrate chloroform is in professional labs, it's really funny

It’s crazy how temperamental camera focuses are. When you lean in, you’re completely in focus; but if you lean back even a little, the camera focuses on the mic attached to your shirt. Like, what the heck camera? Focus on the thing in the center, not some arbitrary object on the edge!

Another great chemistry channel I like is sreetips, I think he and his wife own an antiques store and have access to old silver and jewelry, he refines the precious metals out of them. Cool stuff!

Oh hey, I think I've used that mouthwash (15:40) after I had a gum graft! If it wasn't that brand it was something very similar or a generic or something. Had to use it because you can't brush for a week or two after the surgery so instead you just nuke all the microbes in your mouth with mouthwash and deal with your teeth feeling gross. Also, for my surgery at least, we couldn't swish or spit the mouth wash so you had to tilt your head around all over in funny angles to get your whole mouth covered and then just open your mouth and let it drip out, which was not the most fun thing ever.
