ProteOn XPR36

Venue :DDK5, UTAR CAMPUS, Perak.
Time: 2pm

Attended a talk today. As the title stated, it is about ProteOn XPR36, which is a protein interaction array system that UTAR is going to purchase one soon. =) Costs about RM2 million per unit and that is very very expensive! There is only one unit in Asia Pacific and if UTAR purchase it, that will be the first in Malaysia to have this equipment. Suddenly, feel proud about the uni. :) The Bio-Rad people lead by the Chemoscience team are here to actually promote the machine or so-called the system to UTAR. So, professors, doctors and lecturers should attend and not us, students. Dr Chew was good enough to tell us about it, and we attended the talk today. Haha, basically go kepoh only! :D It was a bit boring. Frankly speaking, the person talking infront, was not trying hard to persuad us to buy the machine. The talk went on for approximately an hour. The peak and exciting part was Prof Poh Chit Laa bombat them with questions. That's good! At least I am awake that time! :D









Below is the machine that the university wants to purchase.



It will be good if the uni purchase one. Then, can use it for the final year project. Weee!! ~
