Imaging Centre (iMAGE) was established in year 2008 and fully operational in year 2009. It is located at Level 1, FF3 Building, Faculty of Pharmacy, UiTM Cawangan Selangor, Kampus Puncak Alam The centre provides access to state-of-the-art facility which includes JEOL JSM-6701 FESEM, Tecnai G2 20S Twin TEM, Laser Confocal Scanning Microscope, Quanta 450 FEG ESEM and Ultramicrotome with cyrochamber. iMAGE also contribute to the faculty’s research output, plays a vital role in supporting the microscopy aspect. We provide research community with leading instruments and expertise for exploring the structure of samples from physical to biological samples. Our services encompass a variety of modern facilities that exploit the microscopy and microanalysis from collimated beams including those of electrons, X-rays, ions, light and lasers. We offer training and workshop in microscopy and microanalysis to users |
