R: Strong contamination with ethidium bromide

[Prof. Piero Sestili]

Nothing to do with the past contamination!  Probably few EB molecules
penetrated to the germinative layer of your skin and most of it was
cleared by corneum.  Just forget it!  16 years ago I noticed an EB stain
on my right hand, due to unexpectedly broken gloves: I’m still here,
writing with the same hand....

For the future simply wear two pairs of lattice gloves when using EB:
normal gloves do not protect so much...and go on with your PhD
