Tuesday, June 03, 2008 - :

Have been going to the RPC almost every single weekday since last week.
FYI, RPC is Rapid Proto-typing Centre. and FYI, FYI is For Your Information.

Have been tasting Indian timing with first hand experience since then.
Our project is arise around the "BioPlotter." Without it, we're doomed. And our current situation is quite bad, as the device has yet to be considered "Commissioning: Passed"

So while all this crap is going around, I've decided to make use of my spare time to train instead of sleeping in the RPC. There's practically nothing much I can do, except to sit/stand 1 corner and observe. Why can't I do hands-on? Cause the engineer doing the commissioning stated that NO 1 IS TO TOUCH THE MACHINE W/O HIS PERMISSION.

Since that much has been said, obviously there's nothing else the rest of us can do, except to use eye power. After all, he is explaining the usage to us.

I'd say that this is the 1st phrase.
The 2nd phrase would be SEM. known as Scanning Electron Microscope.
This is done to determine the porosity of the scaffold we've build using the BioPlotter. Before SEM can be done, we have to do "ghost spattering" to the scaffold. However, once a scaffold has undergo this treatment, it is no longer suitable for cell culturing. Despite the fact that it cannot be used for cell culturing, we could always use to for mechanical strength testing. So it's not really wasted as we can waste it! *muahahaha

Alrite, retiring out now.. Have a jog to do tmr morning.
