JM BRIANI

we just had our lunch @ JM briani today, for 3 of us it cost about RM43.35...
im quite shocked coz i dont realize that they have service charge which is 10%.i wonder why, it looks like just other ordinary restaurant...we didnt even get the best service though....weird kan? i thought malaysian`s restaurant will not charge for the service...for other fast food restaurant, yes i do understand...mayb the ministry have to do something bout it...i dont know...

by the way, i love these pics...n the wording is interesting too!

Pre-exp lagi!

Ive started my pre again..yesterday with the help of nik!
for 3 concentration of nickel; 10,15 and 20ppm.
this time, after i got the advice from Prof, he suggest to me that i should prepare nickel stock solution using ultra pure water or UPW. Ill leave my flask for 8 days n then only, ill spike with nickel solution...then, wait n c lah...huarrrgggg...so ngantuk now man, just came back from a taklimat for fellowship...actually it was all about signing an agreement...tak nak kite lari kan...but still the thing is no contract with uitm so far...! ok lah kan..coz i was thinking of taking a break after semuanya selesai....hope sume selesai till penghujungnya!

WED=PINK DAY=BASKIN ROBBINS

yay! its wednesday! and its a PINK day! n its time to eat ice cream! hehehehee....
enjoy eating it every wed, i guess...part of my stress just blew away when i ate it! especially with my fav flavor...strawberry cheesecake & mint!!!! Yummy...
bring anything pink....hairband, purse, earing, necklace, pendant, bag, shoes, sandals.....
ANYTHING...!OK! anything, as long as its pink in color...coz we will get 2 scoops of ice cream with only paying for a price of one!

Autoclave

hai! me again! whats up for today...
emmm....lets proceed with my lab work ya!
ok..today, ive sampled 10L of wastewater...n part of it will be autoclaved and it will act as my blank...1 blank and 1 sample.....for 3 different concentration; 10,15 and 20ppm. wondering whats the purpose of autoclave?
ok...basically, its the only thing/instrument/machine that can kill germs..bad germs...hahah...both ok; bad and good germs OK! hahaha
so if our experiment is design to be clean from any germs, then we should autocolave our samples 1st! its important, very important to ensure that no bacteria will interfere with your samples and the whole experiment!
pics here shows the autoclave and my samples...happy viewing!

Metrohm~

Me n ms Fatin Dahlia went for a seminar yesterday at The Royal Bintang Damansara...
such a great event coz somehow, ive gained more knowledge on IC..lots of things that i still dont know on IC so i got the chance to ask as many questions as possible...
n there i got all the answers straight away!
before this im not so sure how the process going on, y should we rinse with methanol, y should use eluent, y got high pressure, y got weird peak..n many more lah!
we also had a free coffe break (fried mee hoon, banana pastry, popia n coffee) and continue with more slides presentation and end at 1 for lunch...Burppp....heheh
at around 2, continue again with group discussion....
finished at about 4pm...

Spiking nickel in wastewater sample

Im currently preparing metal solution to be spike into the wastewater sample. As u can see the blue bottle is called 'Scott bottle' contains heavy metal (nickel. So the solution is actually wastewater from Mawar College in Uitm Shah Alam..
After preparing the solution, i need to spike each septum bottle with 4ml of nickel..
Need to inject the nickel solution with syringe, so have to be very careful...

Commissioning of Biohazard cabinet

OK..whats new today? we have a commissioning of biohazard cabinet in our lab level 4 at S&T building which starts at 11am. This biohazard cabinet is very important to those who is currently doing their research on microbes...u know, its the only place that is safe to conduct ur research coz microbes can be pathogen...or as Liew aways ask " is it opportunist pathogen????" hahaha...

I ACCUSE

Ive just finished watching this...I ACCUSE...great story...

Rabbit @ uncle yob's house

rabbit..rabbit...cute rabbit..hahah
i love animals...im feeding them..this is when i went to my uncle's house at sentul last saturday..

Preparing PCR...

PCR actually stand for post column reagent...act as a reagent for the detection of metals in UV-VIC/Compact IC..basically its an instrument which can detect heavy metals such as nickel, zink, manganese, lead n many more...as long as it is in the periodic table..this instrument can only detect metals at concentration of not more than 20ppm...
look at the pics that ive attached together...its the PCR...i need to pour in 80ml of pure 25% ammonia and add with 20ml of 99% glacial acetic acid...see how reactive it is...so scared when doing this...u know..its so dangerous...i have to pour the acid slowly...so that it wont like splash out...very dangerous u know...
n must remember to do it under the fume hood or else ur lung will act as the fume hood and ull get sick later..hahah as simple as that...later after all the reactions gone, i will slowly add Ultra pure water till the level on the volumetric flask of 500ml..thats the way to prepare it...after that, put a magneic bar inside the volumetric flask, wrap the flask with aluminium foil and put it on the magnetic stirrer and let it stir overnite.! done for that & continue tomorrow!

cukur jambul...

yesterday we went to a ceremony called cukur jambul for baby girl HUSNA.....

changing new guard column & column...

today is the day...hehehe..
actually due to so much problem created by the ic...we have decided to change the column..previously we change the guard column but the problem still exist...
so its probably due to the column that have been working too hard...
price for one column is actually RM6K..super duper expensive! tension..
hahah coz i still dont have any grants yet...coz its the last stock available in the lab....hoping that the column will be just fine for 2 years lah ye!
im using the Ion chromatography to check all the sulphur compounds such as sulphate, sulphide, sulphite, thiosulphite and other micronutrients present in the wastewater aka sample...

things that i need to buy..

for my own exp...i need to buy zipper bag & aluminium foil

Read this...OMG!

my research is basically on sulphide and here is what i found, quite surprising..

Smell of rotten eggs hydrogen sulphide alternative to Viagra
thenewspointer.blogdns.com — A malodorous gas behind the smell of rotting eggs has been found to play a key role in giving men erections.Scientists believe the discovery could lead to the development of a male impotence drug to rival Viagra,prior to sexual intercourse, minute quantities of hydrogen sulphide are released within the key nerve cells of the penis.
