- hectormalot 6y agoOff topic, but that reminded me of some horror stories from my chemistry days: Dimethylmercury able to kill through 2 drops absorbed through a latex glove: https://www.acsh.org/news/2016/06/06/two-drops-of-death-dimethylmercury https://www.acsh.org/news/2016/06/06/two-drops-of-death-dime... And of course the amazing series of ‘things I won’t work with’.
