Laboratory Services
Anaerobic and Special Bacterial Pathogen Laboratories are catering to the diagnostic needs as the nodal centre for many teaching and non-teaching hospitals across the country. The laboratory offers NABL accredited investigations for a wide spectrum of rare and neglected bacterial pathogens (including anaerobes and rickettsia).
