Laboratories & Research Facilities
Laboratories are the backbone of any technical institutes. We have twelve laboratories including animal house.
Central instrumentation room, pilot plant & research labs for M. Pharm. All labs are constructed & designed as per AICTE & PCI specifications.
They are well equipped with modern instruments. There is a separate state-of-the art two storied air conditioned animal house
which is ready for experimentation on animals. We will expand our research capabilities by adding more research laboratories like Pharm.
Chemistry and Quality Assurance. All laboratories are equipped with primary aid facility along with safety equipment's.
Departments
The College has four departments viz., Pharmaceutical & Medicinal Chemistry, Pharmaceutics, Pharmacology and Pharmacognosy.
The department of
Pharmaceutical & Medicinal Chemistry has 3 UG labs and a central instrument room with sophisticated instruments
like HPLC, UV-Visible Spectrophotometer, Spectrofluorimeter, Flame photometer etc. The 3 UG Labs include Pharmaceutical
and Medicinal Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Analysis and Organic Chemistry Lab. This department is headed by
Dr. Rakesh R. Somani.
The department of
Pharmaceutics has 3 UG labs, one pilot plant and one post-graduate laboratory. The UG labs include Pharmaceutics-I,
Pharmaceutics-II and Biotechnology. In addition there is a separate in-process quality control room. Certain GMP standards are
implemented in the design of the labs including concealed water and sewage lines, microscope lights, balance covers and provision
of adequate lockers. There is a separate preparation area in each lab. Practicals dealing with sterile operations are conducted
in Biotechnology Lab. This lab has an excellently designed sterile area with wash and change areas, air locks, air shower, laminar bench,
HEPA filters. We have an integrated and prefabricated designed Pilot plant. The pilot plant has many equipment’s and machines for dosage
form development including solids, coating, liquids, semisolids and size reduction mills. This department is headed by
Dr. Pradnya Palekar Shanbhag.
The department of
Pharmacology has a well maintained animal house apart from a UG lab that deals with study related to
pharmacotherapeutics and drugs interactions experiments and includes excellent facilities to study drug effects on isolated
tissues/organs and the evaluation. This department is headed by
Mrs. Gayatri Aggrawal.
The department of
Pharmacognosy imparts knowledge in the field of medicinal and natural products. The department has an undergraduate
laboratory and a drug museum of several plant materials. This department is headed by
Mrs. Vidhi Bhatia.
