Myself and two carts of consumables that had been delivered earlier, shortly after a shortage of cuvettes (I am holding a case of them) due to supply chain issues. This was one of the challenges I encountered during my co-op term. Cuvettes are used frequently in the lab to measure absorbance of a sample. Unexpected and prolonged shipping delays can affect experiments.
