The Plant Hormone Analysis Lab is equipped with cutting-edge instrumentation, including Gas Chromatography (GC), Ultra Performance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC), and a Multimode Reader. GC provides high-resolution separation and detection of volatile compounds, while UPLC offers enhanced sensitivity and speed for analyzing complex mixtures of plant hormones. The Multimode Reader supports a variety of assay formats, including fluorescence, absorbance, and luminescence measurements, enabling versatile and precise hormone analysis. This advanced setup allows for comprehensive profiling of plant hormones, such as auxins, gibberellins, cytokinins, and abscisic acid, facilitating a deeper understanding of plant growth, development, and stress responses. The lab aims to uncover insights into plant signaling pathways and develop strategies to enhance crop yields and resilience.
