Current status of optic fiber condition (switch from inverted microscope to upright)

Image
  As of 21 Aug 2021, one dim spot was observed. Please take good care of the fiber optic.

Update on the microscope condition

Image
We have just learnt from the Nikon technician that our fiber optic has been damaged. This causes a shadow background while visualizing the sample with a mercury lamp (attached herewith), not a bright field. Besides, all the lenses have been contaminated by the immersion oil. This means that there might be some spilled over while rotating the objective lens.   Please make sure to clean "all the objective lenses" properly after finishing your work.  Learn from my deposited video if you are not sure how to properly clean.  The 60X objective lens of the upright microscope does not work properly anymore and I decided not to replace it with a new one since it is extremely expensive.  I decided to switch the optic fiber between inverted and upright. Thus, the shadow will instead appear in the inverted microscope in the cell culture-micro room. We need to place an order for the new optic fiber and I do not know when it will be approved (cost perhaps  >...

How to have Endnote connect with Google docs (update: 2024-04-23)

Image
  I think it is worth to share this trick. Normally, I use sciwheel to cite in the ggDoc.  ---- Thank you for contacting Clarivate.  I understand you would like to have Endnote connect with Google doc. I will glad to assist you on this. It is possible to use EndNote to place citations into a Google Doc. It will take a few steps and you will still need to have EndNote installed on your desktop.  Step 1 : Drag and drop your citations from EndNote to where you want to place them in your Google doc.  Step 2:  When you're finished writing, download your Google doc in Rich Text Format (.rtf) Step 3 : In EndNote, select Tools - Format Paper - Format Paper and choose your .rtf file Step 4 : In the Format Paper dialog box that appears, choose the citation style you want under Output Style and click Format. Step 5 . Save the paper as an .rtf file to your desktop. Note: you will lose the citation formatting if you upload this file back into Google docs so co...

Basic Molecular Biology Techniques

Image
In this blog, I will compile online tutorials that demonstrate how to use basic molecular instruments correctly. As I have observed, some students/staff do not enroll in the instrumental course as a prerequisite, and as a result, they use some instruments without proper care, resulting in the instrument being damaged (wasting time and money on situations which could be prevented if they are knowledgeable).

How to effectively run core facility?

Image
We read a lot of research papers but we do not pay attention that much to infrastructure management, especially core facilities. Actually, there are several papers or articles published recently on how to run core effectively and how good facility management helps on research productivity and reproducibility.
