Gayle,
<p>The dropper tops can be easily removed. We jusr measure out the
reagents and mix them in a disposable plastic container and then incubate
our samples. If you wanted to use dops, you could pick up cheap plastic
droppers. The ones in our stock room are so cheap the sides offer
almost no resistance! As for the A & B vials now without the
dropper tips--1) you could just slip the tips back in, or 2) leave them
out, but warn everyone that they are out!
<p>That's my $ 0.02. Did you ever notice that the "cents" symbol
is not on computer keyboards?

<br><i>Subject: Putting the "squeeze" on, it has come to this!</i><i></i>
<p><i>Help, I need to know some opinions on an AEC kit, to replace
mine. I love</i>
<br><i>the reagents and the results, but can no longer tolerate the little
hard</i>
<br><i>sided squeeze bottles! It it just too painful to deal with,
and would like</i>
<br><i>to know of another AEC that is as good as Vector's. Hopefully, they
are</i>
<br><i>looking in, and also in the future get rid of those little bricks
we have</i>
<br><i>to squeeze! I rarely complain, well, almost! but this has
gone beyond the</i>
<br><i>beyond. So it is switch, rather than fight! tossing in the
towel! My</i>
<br><i>finger joints will thank me.</i><i></i>
<p><i>So recommendations please! I would prefer a simple method of
making it up,</i>
<br><i>two step. Tired of having sore fingers insulted by ergonomically
incorrect</i>
<br><i>squeeze bottles! What a bummer! Other vendors should be "squeezed"
into</i>
<br><i>rethinking their packaging also.</i><i></i>
<p><i>Putting the "squeeze" on after feeling "squeezed" myself!</i>
