The 2nd Designated Institutes Meeting

Posted on by

Assistant Director Dr.Charun Yafa was a chairperson for The 2nd Designated Institutes meeting (DIs Meeting). There were 3 institutes attended the meeting consisting of the Office of Atoms for Peace (OAP), Thailand Institute of Scientific and Technological Research (TISTR) and Department of Medical Sciences (Bureau of Radiation and Medical Devices, and Bureau of Quality and Safety and Food).

Dr.Charun talked about the metrology trends that are challenging to DIs today and gave his policy to continue cooperation among the DIs. Chairperson suggested to DIs that should apply its application for becoming a APMP member (Asia Pacific Metrology Programme) to receive any updates from other member in the Asia-Pacific region.

This meeting, International Relations Officers (IRO) Dr.Natthaphon Jarat and Ms.Thanakporn Nontachart were attended as the meeting secretariat as well as described how to submit APMP member application and writing an APMP report.The meeting was held online from Phadung Matra building, NIMT Pathum Thani province on 9 February 2022.

Posted on by

On 25 January 2022, Assistant Director Dr.Charun Yafa, together with International Relations Officers, Dr.Natthaphon Jarat and Miss Thanakporn Nontachart attended the 2nd Lancang-Mekong Cooperation Coordinating Working Group Meeting (LMC-CWG) via  Zoom application. There were 6 representatives of National Institute of Metrology (NIMs) and related agencies  from Mekong sub-regional countries joined the meeting – National Metrology Center of Cambodia (NMC), National Institute of Metrology of China (NIM), The Department of Standardization and Metrology of Laos PDR. (DoSM),  The Department of Research and Innovation of Myanmar (DRI),  Vietnam Metrology Institute (VMI) and National Institute of Metrology (Thailand) (NIMT).

Assistant Director Dr.Charun Yafa, together with International Relations Officers, Dr.Natthaphon Jarat and Miss Thanakporn Nontachart took a zoom group photo with all participants.

This meeting focuses on actions defined in the minutes of 1st LMC CWG meeting and identifying priorities for implementing LMC in 2022, including Proposal for Establishing the LMC Working Mechanism, priorities for technical training, especially on medical metrology as a priority area, and Initiative on Improving Metrological Traceability within Lancang – Mekong Region. The meeting was successful and well-participated by each countries. Next meeting will be summarized and presented survey-needed courses that each countries have raised urgently. This working group becomes the greatest metrological cooperation within the sub-region supported by NIM China.

Training on “Mathematical model for the uncertainty measurement and calibration’s assessment”

Posted on by

Corporation and Partnership Development Group under the Policy and Strategy Department organised a training on “Mathematical Model for Assessment in the Uncertainty of Measurement and Calibration” online. This training organised for the participants from various organisations of public and private sectors. It was lectured by NIMT two professional metrologists, Dr.Monthol Homklintian, an expert in primary electrical, time and frequency standards and Mrs.Natenapit Khunmthukthip, an expert in direct current, low frequency, high frequency and electromagnetic fields. The aims of the training were to gain knowledge about the guidelines for measurement modelling to design measurement models and to enable to assess the uncertainty of measurement and calibration.

NIMT – KCMH – SU moves forward to research for UV rays innovation to the psoriasis treatment

Posted on by

NIMT’s Department of Thermometry and Optical Metrology, Division of Dermatology Department of Internal Medicine King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital (KCMH) and Department of Physics Faculty of Sciences Silpakorn University (SU) join as a part of prototype and UV irradiance calibration measuring method research which it uses to evaluate the effectiveness of psoriasis treatment. The research focuses on the benefit of treatment, reduction of risk and side – effects, crowding in the hospital, and included treatment expense.

Psoriasis typically has treated by Narrowband UVB (NB – UVB). The results by NB – UVB treatment are satisfactory, but there are some limitations, for example; there are merely 30 NB – UVB machines in Thailand. Such as limitations cause crowding in the hospital because of the great number of patients is waiting in row. Furthermore, there is high risk that might occur if the machines were not in standard required. It sympathizes with the low-income patients who are probably unable to get to the treatment comfortably due to the high expenses.

Additionally, KCMH researchers have been initiative their experiments to use Helio-therapy for anti-psoriasis treatment which needs UV meter to anti-psoriasis effective UV irradiance measurement. Then, the researchers asked NIMT metrologists for joint research to build “Prototype innovation for UV irradiance measurement” to solve such research problems. The researchers designed a working function to control the treatment method. NIMT metrologists have developed UV irradiance measuring prototype since 2020. The development began from software writing, prototype search tools and calibration. Software trial will make confidence and match to user’s needs. However, the prototype is under the process of development. NIMT will upgrade it by wireless transfer data via Wi-Fi and output by semi-real time. Doctors, penitents, researchers and the people will be able to access required data suddenly. In the approaching future, the prototype will develop into portable versions which are friendly to use at home. If it done, the psoriasis patients would not necessary to come to the hospital often, but they still need doctors or dermatologists advice.
