staffs and WIS students.
LMSA staffs introduced health care system for
students from Westlake International School (WIS) by providing a range of
diagnostic, technical and therapeutic materials. Ms. Keshika (from left, no.1) was
guiding students in hands-on for blood group identification test.
This outreach activity enables
students expanded their analytical chemistry knowledge with simple task
covering the relatively familiar, such as effect of density. Different sugar
density with food dye additives exhibits a few layers of immiscible solution
which looks like a rainbow tower.
LMSA staffs provided an excellent opportunity
for student in exploring food analysis, such as determination of soluble solid
content (SSC) for fruit samples.
Rainbow Connection, the colorful pH
indicators, such as phenolphthalein or thymolpthalein were demonstrated by
adding either acidic or basic solution into them.
LMSA staff demonstrated the formation of
Golden Rain by delivering chemistry knowledge to students and this triggered
students’ interest successfully.
LMSA staff cultivate WIS
students with basic of microbiology knowledge and provided them an opportunity
to learn aseptic techniques and bacteria streak plate.
Trained LMSA staff, Puan Izzati covered the
principles of chemical modification on the cotton pads become flash paper and
demonstrated it in front of students.
Flash paper was prepared for students to train
their handling skills and to test their chemistry knowledge in this
demonstration.
