Micro-Laser Raman (Seiki, Japan)
The Raman microscope can offer a powerful non-destructive and non-contact method of sample analysis. The true confocal mapping performance /imaging are of the highest definition and resolution. The sophisticated software and hardware enables fast and accurate Raman images to be obtained routinely.
Powder X-Ray Diffractometer (X’ Pert Pro – PAnalytic)
The system offers an affordable solution for high-throughput, high-quality phase identification and quantification.
FE-SEM with EDAX (Quanta FEG 250)
The Quanta FEG‐250 SEM instrument is an environmental Scanning Electron Microscope used for high‐resolution imaging and composition analysis by energy dispersive X‐ray microanalysis (EDS). The FEG column in Quanta 250 allows beam deceleration, which permits to achieve a resolution of 1.4 nm even at 1 kV electron landing voltage. The Quanta equipment can work under three different pressure ranges, the maximum pressure being 2600 Pa. This permits observation of life‐sciences samples without previous metallic coating, i.e., studies in environmental conditions (ESEM).
MALDI TOF-TOF Spectrometer (Axima)
MALDI is the abbreviation for "Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption /Ionization." The sample for MALDI is uniformly mixed in a large quantity of matrix. The matrix absorbs the ultraviolet light (nitrogen laser light, wavelength 337 nm) and converts it to heat energy. A small part of the matrix (down to 100 nm from the top outer surface) heats rapidly (in several nano seconds) and is vaporized, together with the sample. The time of ion flight differs according to the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) value of the ion under applied constant potential. The method of mass spectrometry that exploits this phenomenon is called Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry.
Real time PCR
Real-time PCR permits the analysis of the biological products while the reaction is actually in progress.
Confocal Microscope-LSM 710(Carl Zeiss)
Visualization of high resolution images of biological samples.
AKTA – Protein Purifier (GE Healthcare Life Sciences)
ÄKTA has outstanding ability to purify virtually any biomolecule and can handle the simplest and the toughest of challenges. The platform covers all major chromatographic and cross flow filtration techniques from the research laboratory (0.001ml/min-25ml/min.) to process development and manufacturing (0.01ml/min – 150ml/min). ÄKTA systems are operated by the intelligent and scalable UNICORN software, which makes it easy to control pH, conductivity, multiple wavelength detection, multiple sample injection and multi-step purification.

PHI - VERSAPROBE III – X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Monochromatic X-ray Beam (15µm), X-ray beam induced secondary electron imaging and chemical state imaging, Large/Micro area and Angle dependent XPS with depth profiling and Bulk, thin and powder samples can be done.
CHNS/O Elemental Analyser
The modern "cube" platform is setting the standards for elemental analyzers. Less than 1 mg sample can be analyzed just as precise as 500 mg sample. Volatile gasoline or temperature-proof silicon carbide can be analyzed just like coal, foodstuff or sewage sludge - without restriction of the elements, simultaneously for CHNS or for the combinations CNS, CHN, CN, O and Cl.
