The laboratory is primarily used for teaching the principles of light microscopy and various microscopic techniques. It allows basic imaging of reflective and transparent samples using different types of microscopes, including a stereomicroscope, a polarizing microscope, and a fluorescence microscope. There are also workstations where students can practically assemble and verify the principles of a light microscope, a spectrophotometer, and a fluorescence microscope.
