Facilities at the College of Applied Science

The facilities of the chemical technology department are primarily located in the Science Building of the College of Applied Science Campus. The department has a freshman laboratory, an organic chemistry laboratory, a biochemistry laboratory as well as two analytical instrumentation laboratories. Some major research grade instrumentation includes:

• GOW-MAC Gas chromatographs (4) with Thermal Conductivity Detectors
• Leeman Labs Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometer
• Perkin Elmer Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer
• BIORAD Capillary Electrophoresis System
• HP Gas Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometer (Quadrupole)
• Varian Gas Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometer (Ion Trap; EI, CI capability)
• Ultrviolet, visible, infrared, and Luminesence spectrometers
• DNA Analyzer
• Polarizing Microscopes (3) with Camera attachment
• Ultracentrifuges
• Electroanalytical and coulometric equipment
• Liquid Chromatographs with UV, Diode array and Refractive Index detectors

In addition, a study area is also available for students. The room is equipped with several computers, conference table, scanner, and a copier.
