Will this work if I pour ether into my vortex dyson?

If I paint one in neon colours, do you think mice will pay me £1 a ride? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnheritage (talkcontribs) 13:03, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is the vacuum necessary?

[edit]

The design section states "A centrifugal evaporator comprises a vacuum pump connected to a centrifuge chamber in which the samples are placed." However not all centrifugal evaporators have vacuums, in fact the centrifuge is simply used to keep the samples in the vials. I think in order to broaden the scope of the page, we need to update this definition. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Glederma (talkcontribs) 15:39, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Who invented the centrifugal evaporator?

[edit]

The article says it was invented "in 1960s by Savant Inc of USA, with their SpeedVac brand." This is incorrect. The centrifugal evaporator dates at least from the late 1800s: patent US158764 was conceded to Conrad Wendel and William Florich in 1875 to an improvement in centrifugal evaporators.

I now have two options: delete the section "History", whose only sentence is incorrect; or keep the section and substitute the sentence by the last one I have written above. I choose the latter. By the way, the sole image in the article is the first page of that patent.191.5.86.140 (talk) 14:37, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
