Medical Microbiology Service Laboratory
Laboratory Services
Isolation and Purification
At Medical Microbiology Service Lab, we isolate and purify fungal and bacterial strains from mixed samples to obtain single, pure cultures for further analysis and experimentation.
Staining Methods
We employ various staining techniques, such as Gram staining and spore staining, to enhance microscopic visualization and differentiate microbial structures.
Biochemical Characterization
This service involves analyzing microbial metabolic and enzymatic activities to identify and characterize microbial species based on their biochemical properties.
DNA Extraction
Our lab extracts high-quality DNA from microbial samples, ensuring the DNA is suitable for downstream applications such as PCR, sequencing, and molecular identification.
Molecular Identification
Utilizing DNA sequencing and molecular markers, we accurately identify microbial species at the genetic level, providing precise taxonomic classification.
Growth Kinetics
We study the growth patterns of microorganisms under various conditions to understand their proliferation rates and environmental preferences.
Disc Diffusion Assay
This assay tests the susceptibility of microorganisms to antibiotics by measuring the inhibition zones around antibiotic-impregnated discs on agar plates.
Agar Dilution Assay
A quantitative method to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antibiotics or antifungal agents by incorporating different concentrations into agar plates.
Broth Dilution Assay
This method determines the MIC by diluting antibiotics or antifungal agents in broth cultures, allowing for the assessment of microbial growth inhibition in liquid media.
