Last Day of lab

Today is the last day of my lab in UCLA. very busy and tough especially the first few weeks. 2 X 7 hours of lab sessions per week is not enjoyable at all.. but now i look back with quite fond memories.. =p

Presenting the Copper Team of UCLA Winter 2007 Chem 184 : Huang Xinhui, Kawai Ryuto and Tan Ching Tian. I still remembered the first day when we were divided up into teams, I laughed out loud when i knew my team is called copper.. Other teams were named the more expensive transition metals like Gold, Platinum, Silver, Mercury and Zinc.. We sounded so cheap.. at first we wanted to change it but oh well, i think we are the most useful one. haha..

Here is Eric Pang, my TA for the first three experiements:

Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption Ionization (MALDI) - Time of Flight (TOF):

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC):
Gas Chromatography & Quadrupole MS (GCMS):
Here is Jason Dunsmore, my second TA for the next three experiments:

Anodic Stripping Voltammetry (ASV):


Infrared Spectroscopy (IR):

And Inductively Coupled Plasma Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-ES): Alot of new techniques were learnt, especially the quantitative aspects.. More importantly, I will certainly miss my classmates, especially Ryuto. He is so funny.. always made me laughed alot.. and by not handing in his homework and lab reports.. i wish him all the best at chicago for his grad studies. =) I will upload more photos of my classmates next week when i meet them during lecture. Will take a group photo with all of them. =)
