QCI Laboratory
Quality Control Laboratory
The Department is equipped with state-of-the-art laboratories that seamlessly blend traditional Ayurvedic pharmaceutical practices with modern scientific technology. These facilities provide extensive hands-on training to undergraduate and postgraduate students in the preparation of classical Ayurvedic formulations as well as innovative contemporary dosage forms.
A dedicated Quality Control Laboratory enables students to gain practical exposure to the standardization, evaluation, and quality assessment of Ayurvedic medicines. Undergraduate students are trained in routine analytical techniques, while postgraduate students have access to the laboratory for advanced research and dissertation work.
The laboratory is furnished with modern analytical and quality-control instruments, including a Petrographic Microscope, UV–Visible Spectrophotometer, Pfizer Hardness Tester, Friability Test Apparatus, Disintegration Test Apparatus, pH Meter, Hot Air Oven, and Muffle Furnace. These facilities support academic excellence, skill development, and research-oriented learning, preparing students to meet the evolving demands of Ayurvedic pharmaceutical sciences.
