OT - Caffinated Soap |
Anybody here tried the soap with caffeine in it? It's supposed to
give you a caffeine boost in the shower, similar to that first cup of
coffee in the morning.

Add cream and sugar to taste and a pinch of cinnamon.

Caffeine is not something that gets absorbed through the skin. Such a
soap is nothing more than a marketing ploy.

What about caffeine anhydrous?
I notice the people who make it also sell jolt caffeinated gum. :-)

I've tried it. The only reason why I think it works so well is because it
smeels very minty. Natually mint is suposed to help boost your energy.

Anhydrous caffeine is just caffeine crystallized from something like
chloroform or ether or alcohol. It's what you'll usually find in a
reagent bottle (or medicine bottle) labeled "caffeine." Well, at least
that's what I remember from my high school Junior Academy of
Science project, many years ago. :)
If I recall aright, caffeine was thought to be absorbable through the
skin, but only in small quantities. A caffeined soap would be washed off
almost immediately, of course, so I wonder if any appreciable amount of
the stimulant would be taken up.
Incidentally, the most memorable part of the high school project
occurred when my partner absent-mindedly pointed the end of a separatory
funnel containing a mixture of chloroform and Mountain Dew (the goal
being to extract the caffeine from the soda) toward his face, turned the
valve, and got a quick and unexpected puff from the vessel. Did you ever
see a folding chair collapse beneath someone? That's how quickly he went
down.

How is chloroform useful in getting caffeine out of Mountain Dew?

Caffeine dissolves in chloroform, but other soda ingredients (such as
corn syrup and food coloring) do not.
Let's see if I remember the procedure...In a separatory funnel, add
water and chloroform to the soda, and shake the mixture well, but not so
vigorously that you form an emulsion. Chloroform is heavier than water,
so it forms a layer at the bottom of the funnel. Draw off this lower
layer and heat the liquid (under a fume hood!) to remove the chloroform.
Sublimate the remaining solids (I.e., caffeine) and distill the fumes
onto a cold test tube or somesuch. Weigh the results. Repeat for various
sodas (and teas and coffees and pep pills).
Convert your findings into a perky report, and show your presentation to
the panel of judges at the local Junior Academy of Science competition.
With any luck you'll get a "First Award" and win yourself a slot at the
state level -- which means a three-day, excused-from-school, hang-out-
with-the-cute-girls-across-the-hallway, vacation at Seven Springs or
some other nice spot.

Incidentally, the most memorable part of the high school project
occurred when my partner absent-mindedly pointed the end of a separatory
funnel containing a mixture of chloroform and Mountain Dew (the goal
being to extract the caffeine from the soda) toward his face, turned the
valve, and got a quick and unexpected puff from the vessel. Did you ever
see a folding chair collapse beneath someone? That's how quickly he went
down.
How is chloroform useful in getting caffeine out of Mountain Dew?
And where does a high school student manage to acquire chloroform?
Off the third shelf from the top in the biology lab, iirc.
Right next to the scalpels, cotton swabs, and frog stickers.

Ah. I wasn't aware that it had any truly useful application in
teaching high school biology. But it makes as much sense as anything,
I guess. :-)

Common is the man who can be fashioned into a
reflection of the era in which he lives.
Rare is the man who can take the era in which
he lives, and fashion it into a reflection
of himself.
