UV-Vis-NIR Spectrophotometer

Function: It measures a material's reflection or transmission by measuring light intensity/absorbency at a specific wavelength and useful in the determining the optical properties (transmittance, reflectance and absorbance) of liquids and solids.

Photoluminescence Spectrophotometer

Function: It measures routine fluorescence measurements in a quality-control environment. It is useful in the characterisation of the optical and electronic properties of semiconductors and molecules.

Optical Polarising Microscope

Function: It is used to capture the magnified image of an object through different contrast-enhancing techniques. It is useful in detecting phase changes in samples; observe and photograph specimens that are visible primarily due to their optically anisotropic character.

FT-IR Spectrometer

Function: it detects the frequencies of infrared light which are absorbed by a molecule and is useful in the determination of the functional groups of molecules, relevant to both organic and inorganic chemistry.

NanoString nCounter SPRINT™ Profiler 

The nCounter SPRINT Profiler is a single instrument designed to let you digitally examine multiple pathways in a single tube and with an extraction-free workflow requiring only 10 minutes of hands-on time. Go from sample to answer in <24 hours even with difficult sample types, including FFPE tissue.

Real-Time PCR Machine

It is a technique used to monitor the progress of a PCR reaction in real-time. At the same time, a relatively small amount of PCR product (DNA, cDNA or RNA) can be quantified.

Rotary Microtome

A microtome is used to make thin slices of tissue (usually 4 μm but can be 2–10 μm). The cut tissue is floated over a water bath (Picture D), in order to eliminate wrinkles and distortion in the tissue, and picked up on a slide.

Histological Section Water Bath

A warm water bath allows tissue to relax and smooth out prior to being mounted on a glass slide. The warmth also makes the paraffin stick to the glass slides.

Plant Growth Chamber

Plant growth chambers produce controlled environments, which are crucial in making reproducible observations in experimental plant biology research.

Media culture for algae.

Microplate Reader

A microplate reader is a laboratory instrument that is used to measure chemical, biological or physical reactions, properties, and analytes within the well of a microplate.

Our Postgraduate student prepares algae before he views it under the dissecting microscope.

Single Crystal X-ray Diffractometer

Function: It collects X-ray diffraction data nd provides detailed information about the crystallographic structure, chemical composition, and physical properties of materials

NMR Spectrometer

Function: It allows a molecular structure of a material to be analysed by observing and measuring the interaction of nuclear spins when placed in a powerful magnetic field. The analysis result can provide a detailed information about the structure, dynamics, reaction state, and chemical environment of molecules.

Freeze Dryer 

The purpose of freeze-drying is to remove a solvent (usually water) from dissolved or dispersed solids. 

Gas Absorption Analyser

Function: It measures surface area, pore size, and pore volume of powders and particulate materials.
