ABANDONED. Kids book , a cartoon chemist running a bunch of experiments with test tubes of different colors

[Thadea]

It was a book in the 80's...a cartoon chemist running a bunch of experiments with test tubes of different colors and what not all over the place. Anyone know the name? Sorry if the description is vague.

I sent him/her a PM. I'm not holding out a lot of hope, since it looks like he/she hasn't been active since posting this thread.
