BSC fumigation





the 'oldest' bsc we have was fumigated recently because it is now for transfection use only, not for infection work. So the guys came in with the formaldehyde and sealed up the whole thing and taped the plastic to the floor. couldnt use the lab for the whole day, and the next day they put in the neutralizing chemical that stank... forgot its name. we took an extended early lunch just to be away from the lab. pity the other labs who were still sitting around the corridor.
The last pic is the heating element for the formaldehyde.

old microscope




Gave away our old microscope that is more than 15 years old because its really a white,erm... beige elephant sitting around. the lenses have fungus and the fluorescence lamp is dated. the camera is also a film type and no one knows how to use it.
Got a slim new one just to view our cells in flasks. ckx41.

kl part 2

on another day i went to KLCC, the petronas twin towers.
got up really early and went to the train station to get to town




queued up for free tickets. went to the 42nd story in this cargo-looking lift. it took 45 seconds to go 42 storys. at the top, your ears were ringing.


the skybridge. they gave you 10 minutes to wow and snap pictures.


one of the views. can see the malaysian cultural center, a malay version of the Sydney Opera house. and nearby is the malaysian ferris wheel. in front of is is a grey roof belonging to the national library.


panoramic view of the other side of the skybridge.
