Bionet posting (problems w/ chemiluminescence)

>Dear Sean,

Surprisingly enough, I think this actually was a problem previously
when I was using Triton X-100 as the detergent. I was aware that
polyether detergents could breakdown and produce peroxides, and my
TX100 stock was getting old. Changing from the TX100 to the Tween
actually improved the signals, although I then started with
background problems that the Triton was solving - the original reason
to use it.

Since identifying the milk as a contributor to the problem I've gone
back over my lab book and confirmed that the problems did become
worse and more frequent after starting with it. I wonder if the
problem is the Argentine brand we're using.

Sean
