Here’s what it’s like watching a TV show set in a lab — this time, “The Mentalist” — with Rockford:

  • “That’s a Centrific 225 centrifuge!”
  • “Ha ha! That’s either an MVE or CBS cryostorage tank! That’s one of their smaller vessels. I think MVE and CBS are the only ones that make the round ones like that.”
  • “That’s not deep-freeze. That’s just a refrigerator.”
  • “Some empty conical tubes in there. They did a nice job doing the set.”
    • Music
