CHEMISTRY LAB
TSBS have a chemistry laboratory for graduate students of B.Sc Hons Biotechnology where they perform different reactions that they have learnt in the books or heard in lectures. TSBS chemistry laboratory is fully equipped with the basic measuring and analytical chemistry laboratory apparatus that allows a good study of all the branches of chemistry. However all the different experiments is performed under the supervision of the skilled lab instructor only. Adhering to safety norms is of paramount importance in a chemistry lab.
