Posted on 11th November 202224th November 2022 by iro

National Institute of Metrology (NIMT) organized a co-meeting on the project of PM10 and PM2.5 from haze smog and visibility Effective in Thailand. There were 3 agencies attending the meeting, namely, The National Institute of Metrology of China (NMI), Vietnam Metrology Institute (VMI), and National Institute of Metrology (Thailand) (NIMT). Each party reported progress and discussed action plans to schedule a research trip at NMI in 2023. This meeting, there were ten attendees as follows.

Dr. Patipat Wongthep, Metrologist, Mechanical Metrology Department
Dr. Patcharapol Gorgitrattanagul, Metrologist, Mechanical Metrology Department
Dr. Terdsak Neadkratoke, Metrologist, Mechanical Metrology Department
Dr. Narin Chanthawong, Metrologist, Dimensional Metrology Department
Miss Charuayrat Yaokulbodee, Head of Temperature and Optical Metrology Department
Dr. Thada Kaewprasert, Metrologist, Temperature and Optical Metrology Department
Mr. Thasorn Singhaneti, Metrologist, Department of Temperature and Optical Metrology
Mr. Pollawat Jumparuang, Metrologist, Temperature and Optical Metrology Department
Miss Benjarat Ngansulong, Laboratory staff Dimensional Metrology Department
Dr. Natthaphon Jarat, International Relations Officer, Professional Organizational Communication Group (International Relations Office)

In this meeting, Miss Thanakporn Nontachart, International Relations Officer, was the project manager and coordinator among them.

The PM10 and PM 2.5 from Haze Smog and Visibility Effect in Thailand is funded by the Lancang-Mekong Special Fund (LMC Special Fund) of the People’s Republic of China to standard measurement of PM2.5 and PM10 dust. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, the project has been rescheduled upon the current situation. Finally, the project will be expected that the project will be completed by 2023. The meeting was held online at Phadung Matra Building, NIMT, Pathum Thani province on 11 November 2022.

NIMT Technical Visiting to NIM Metrology on medical devices and food safety in China

Posted on 13th July 20191st July 2020 by iro

Ms. Charuayrat Yaokulbodee, Acting Head of Thermometry and Optical Metrology Department and NIMT staff paid a technical visit to National Institute of Metrology (NIM) between 7 – 13 July 2019 on Metrology on medical devices and food safety at Changping Campus and Hepingli Campus, NIM, Beijing, China.

The aims of this visiting were to technical exchange related to medical devices and food safety labs and activities as following;

Technical exchange on infusion pump and syringe pump.
Technical exchange on patient monitor and blood pressure.
Technical exchange on blood oximeter.
Technical exchange on phototherapy.
Technical discussion in Hepingli campus on element and speciation analysis; Sample preparation for arsenic speciation analysis in rice flour and mercury speciation analysis in fish.
Determination of arsenic speciation analysis in rice flour and mercury speciation analysis in fish with HPLC-ICP-MS.
Lab tour of the particle measurement lab.
Introduction of the reference membranes for the calibration of β-ray attenuation monitors.
Lab tour of the ambient aerosol measurement lab.
Introduction of the measurement of the penetration curve of PM2.5/PM10 samplers.
Technical discussion on related research cooperation in the future.

This project was supported by the Ministry of Higher Education, Sciences, Research and Innovation (MHESI) (former-the Ministry of Sciences and Technology (MOST)) under the Thailand – China Sciences and Technology Cooperation. It was the first project on medical devices and food safety metrology which continue exchanging and joining researches between NIMT and NIM further.
