Metal and Nutrient Analysis lab is equipped with ICP and AA spectrometers, C/N and amino acid analyzers. These instruments can be operated 7/24 with the attached auto-sampler units. The lab is intensively used to analyze plant and soil samples obtained from various national and international research projects and graduate studies dealing with a wide range of hot research topics such as enrichment of cereal grains with micronutrients. Samples of industrial and environmental origin are also being analyzed for determination of elemental composition.
