Nano-fabrication module
The nano-fabrication module provides equipment and devices that are heavily involved in the manufacturing of nanomedicine formulations. It also provides clean bench space and accessible fume hoods for various chemical synthesis and formulation preparation work. In addition, there are several types of refrigerators and freezers available for the safe storage of materials and samples.
