This activity was successfully carried out on Thursday, July 28, 2022, with the theme “Method of Testing Compounds with Potential as Antivirus”.

This webinar presents great resources persons Mochamad Zakki Fahmi, Ph.D as a lecturer and researcher at the Faculty of Science and Technology, Universitas Airlangga, and Jonathan Gan, Ph.D as Technical Service Scientist Promega. More than 120 people took part in this activity.

Mochamad Zakki Fahmi, Ph.D said that nanomaterials received special changes in virus-based theranostics, carbon dots play an important role in the treatment of HIV and other viruses. Several modifications may be made to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the nanoparticles.

Jonathan Gan, Ph.D said that the cell viability test was used to correlate the number of living cells with the level of the virus. This webinar is expected to provide an understanding of the Method of Testing Compounds with Potential as Antivirus
