Research Laboratory At Department of Botany:
To persuit the scientific study, Department of Botany has a well equipped and spacious laboratory. Research in the lab is broadly themed on
- Medicinal Plants and Natural Products
- Plant Physiology
- Biofuel Technology
- Nano Biotechnology
- Plant Taxonomy
- Molecular Phylogenetic.
- Plant Biotechnology and Environment
Laboratory is equipped with RT-PCR for the reverse transcription of DNA and RNA, gel electrophoresis system for the separation of DNA, RNA and Proteins, PCR for the amplification of DNA, Growth Chamber for optimising the requirement of light and temperature to efficiently culture the genetically modified plants, calluses and to perform different stress related experiments.
The lab is also equipped with two Laminar flow hoods for performing diverse biological activities against different microorganisms and experiments related to tissue culture. The autoclave in lab is for sterilization of different samples, glassware before and after the experiments. For nano biotechnology and biofuel technology we have latest centrifuges, sonicator, hot plates, vortex machines. There is a modern rotary evaporator for the fractionation of different crude extract of the plants and their parts. A latest water distillation plant is here for achieving distilled water for our sensitive experiments
