Another oldie, but goodie. At least where I come from. Years ago, Ghostbusters Intenational's® R&D along with our franchises came up with a way to make ectoplasm aka slime. I think we did this so we could study ectoplasmic properties without having to remove paranormal entities from the protection grid. In recent years improvements to containment technology have allowed for easier methods in our ongoing paranormal studies.
Why then do we still make slime? Dr. Spengler would probably disagree with this answer. We make it for fun. It can be an interesting, if not messy distraction. If you would like to make slime, check out our fun, er educational article called How To Make Slime.* Which was written by Dr. Norm "Paranorman" Gagnon.
