Biochemistry Laboratory / Fermentation Technology Laboratory / Microbiology Laboratory / Molecular Biology Laboratory:

A very well equipped laboratory suited to the needs of the biotechnology curriculum and basic research work, temperature controlled and designed to follow Bio-safety norms.

The laboratory has a plethora of sophisticated instruments, which are required for biochemistry experiments, like UV Spectrophotometer, Visible Spectrophotometer, Sonicator, Centrifuge, Chromatography kits, Gel electrophoresis units for separation of protein and DNA. In addition, there are Reverse Osmosis and Ultrafiltration units for protein separation and purification.

Two large laminar flow cabinets provide the aseptic conditions for experiments of Microbiology, Molecular Biology and Genetics. The laboratory can boast of a large collection of Bacterial and Fungal cultures, which are maintained regularly in Refrigerators, and a Deep Freezer specially fabricated for this purpose. Students are provided with the latest versions of Binocular Microscopes for observing stained Bacterial specimens. The Bioreactors in the Fermentation Technology Laboratory are fitted with the latest versions of pH meters, DO meters and Membrane filters. Autoclaves are used for sterilizing glassware, discarded materials, lab coats etc.
