Chemistry Cachet has started a new series on the blog. Chemist solutions to make your life more simple, more easy, more healthy, and better! As a chemist, I am always aware of the chemicals in my daily life especially cleaning supplies.

This is a simple solution we always used in a heated chemistry lab to make sure our utensils, hoods, and equipment were clean. And guess what? It works perfect for household uses too!
