Laboratories

Laboratories:

The Paramedical Wing Institute of Pharmacy and Technology, Salipur, consists of two laboratories for Pathology, Biochemistry, and Microbiology. The laboratories are equipped with sophisticated instruments, apparatus, machines, and glassware. The laboratories are highly rich with several chemicals, reagents, testing kits, and other accessories which facilitate conducting all sorts of practicals as mentioned in the syllabus.

List of instruments or machines or apparatus:

Sl. No. Name of Instrument/ apparatus Purpose
1 Colorimeter It is an instrument that allows for the measurement of light and its intensity to match the color as it is perceived by the human eye.It compares the measured color against the standard colors with the color spaces.
2 Centrifuge Centrifuges are mainly used to separate a few unnecessary particles from a compound by rotating them inside a rotator device.
3 Differential Count It is used for blood infections and allergies.
4 Haemometer It is used to measure the concentration ofhemoglobin in blood tests.
5 Haemocytometer The hemocytometer (or hemocytometer) is a counting-chamber device originally designed and usually used for counting blood cells.
6 Incubator It uses for the growth of microorganisms in many fields, including medical, pharmaceuticals, agricultural, environmental, food, and industrial microbiology, public health, basic research, and education
7 Light Microscope A light microscope is used to magnify objects too small to be seen with the naked eye. Light microscopes use a series of lenses to magnify specimens.
8 Compound Microscope The identification of diseases becomes easy in pathology labs with the help of a compound microscope. Forensic laboratories use compound microscopes for the detection of human fingerprints.
9 Autoclave It is particularly useful for media-containing water that cannot be sterilized by dry heat. It is the method of choice for sterilizing the following: Surgical instruments, Culture media, Autoclavable plastic containers, Solutions and water Biohazardous waste Glassware (autoclave resistible)
10 Hot Air Oven It is used to clean and sterilize the media, Chemicals, and apparatus.
11 Spectrophotometer It is useful in qualitative analysis, especially when identifying classes of compounds in both biological and pure states.
12 Electrophoresis kit It is used in the analysis of DNA analysis the studying of DNA fragments.
13 Laminar Airflow It is used for the aseptic transfer of microbial cultures.
14 Stethoscope It is used to listen to the sound made by the heart, lungs, and intestine, as well as blood flow in arteries and veins.
15 Water Bath It is used to incubate samples at a constant temperature over a long period of time.
16 Sphygmomanomete It is used to measure blood pressure.
17 Blood Cell Counter It is used to help diagnose and monitor other conditions.
18 Ph Meter It is used to determine the Ph of chemical solutions, acids, and bases.
19 Antibiotic Zone Reader It is used to determine the zone of inhibition of antimicrobial substances by measuring the diameter.
20 Packed Cell Volume It is used to diagnose dehydration (Low body fluids or blood volume)

List of chemicals, reagents, and KIT:

1 Urea Kit It reveals important information about how well our kidneys are well working.
2 Uric acid kit It helps diagnose gout.
3 Bilirubin Kit It helps check out the liver along with the jaundice.
4 Cholesterol Kit The concentration of cholesterol in our body.
5 Creatinine Kit It is used to see if our kidneys are working normally.
6 Widal Kit To detect typhoid.
7 ASO Kit It is a blood test that checks for a strep infection.
8 RA Kit Check for rheumatoid arthritis.
9 Crp Kit Check for inflammation due to an infection.
10 Toxo Kit Check for antibodies to the toxoplasma gondiiparasite.
11 Malaria Kit To detect malaria
12 HIV Kit Check for infected with HIV.
13 VDRL Kit To detect screening tests for syphilis.
14 ABO Blood Grouping Kit To detect blood group.
15 ESR KIT To detect ESR.
