Ecotoxicology Laboratory
Laboratory Facilities
Currently, our laboratory is equipped with the following analytical and research instruments:
SACON laboratory facilities can also be used by other institutions for the analysis of physio-chemical properties of plants, soil, water and biological samples containing pesticides and heavy metals on payment basis.
Analytical Services to Academic Institutions & Industries
Division of Ecotoxicology
Laboratory facility at the Ecotoxicology division is being upgraded with state-of-the-art analytical instruments to qualify and quantify many organic and inorganic contaminants in a variety of biological and non-biological matrices.
The facility will be fully operational in the next month or two. While the facility is primarily to meet the division’s mandate of understanding the impact of contaminants on ecosystem components, especially birds, we also intend to help the academic community and industries with their analytical requirements at affordable cost.
