      Hi Lewis,

      Interesting question! I have dropped a flask with a drug that I’ve been working on for the past year or so onto the floor where it smashed… 1 years work all over the floor!! Luckily i was very determined to recover it, and I absorbed it onto paper towel, then put that in a solvent to dissolve off the drug, and I got most of it back! 🙂

      Being clumsy can be a pain at times!

      Steve
