[Yeast] Acid-washed glass Beads (Cinzia Pagliuca)

[lautys]

Dear Cinzia Pagliuca,

Autoclave and acid-wash all the glass beads again, it should be no problem
to reuse it.

1. autoclave (killing)
2. acid-wash (to dissolve and hydrolyze any contaminant, standard protocols
can be found easily online)

But I would rather buy new bottle, since it's too hassle to clean up those
beads.

regards,
Lau
