Research Experience

My latest research was focused on determination of air quality based on Air microbial virus particle (SARS-CoV 2) concentration along with their distribution using the Gaussian-Plume Mathematical Modelling & computational biologyapproach for predicting their spread at the West Java Regional Health Laboratory Building Environment. I determined the concentration of microbial dan virus in the air environment assisted by membrane-fliter attached with air sampler suction compartments. The microbial concentration from the samplers were enumerated in several optimizing media using several specific media to support their growth. Meanwhile, the number of virus concentration (CT value) was monitored by using RT-PCR from the air samplers. Moreover, I build several modellings to predict the spread of potential patogenic microorganism according to microbial and virus concentration number in each area by using computational approach. This research was aimed to gave an insight & prediction about current health & safety condition within the West Java Regional Health Laboratory Building and gave the stakeholder an evidence & recommendation for the future.

Testimonial

Biotechnology master’s programme is a great place to broaden my life long-learning curve and personal growth skills. The faculty members along with the department provide me a plethora things to learn beyond the classroom boundary due to multidisciplinary atmosphere. The lecturers are supportive, also keen to broaden the way of student’s systematical thinking as well as stimulate the student’s personal growth through self-development activities and other skills. Students are being offered with several interesting scholarship opportunities and guided to prestigious internship or other exchange programs. Generally, my personal and learning period in Biotechnology ITB has been miraculous.
