Advance Phycology and Microbial Ecology lab has been established in the department of Botany and Environmental Science at Sri Guru Granth Sahib World University with the financial assistance of about fourteen lakh fifty four thousand four hundred rupees from Science and Engineering Research Board, Department of Science and Technology during 2018- 2022. This advanced lab delves into the fascinating world of algae (phycology) and microbial ecology, offering a deeper understanding of these crucial yet often unseen components of our planet's ecosystems. The lab component provides a hands-on learning experience, equipping you with advanced techniques to study these essential life forms. Students gain practical skills in culturing, identifying, and analyzing algae and microbial communities. The laboratory is equipped with deep freezer for Long-term Storage of Algal Cultures, gel doc connected with desktop for analyzing and documenting the results of gel electrophoresis experiments. Sample synthesis facilities are also available in the lab for preparing noble compositions with the help of Analytical grade chemicals.
