Soil Micro-organism: Carbon and Nitrogen Transformation Test.

Inhalation toxicology laboratory at Intox, presently capable of testing rodents, is the most advanced in the country.

Apart from the existing inhalation equipment sourced from In-Tox Products (USA), Palash (Germany),  

another complete inhalation expsoure system procured from TSE, Germany has been installed in year 2021. 

These high precision equipment ensure that the test items, especially the pharmaceuticals are delivered in the most desirable and appropriate manner. The aerosol characterization using automated systems employing validated software provide the much sought robust safety data data.
