“massaging tartrazine solution into hairless mouse skin over the course of a few minutes or using microneedling achieves “complete optical transparency in the red region of the visible spectrum”
I know it didn’t happen this way but I like to believe it was someone having their unwashed dorito fingers after lunch, decided to massage a mouse for several minutes, and figuring this out
Sounds like a masturbation injury if I've ever heard of one, the mouse is clearly a cover
A scientist frantically looking for something to rub dorito dust on, before everyone else get into the lab the next morning.
