The microbiology laboratory studies also the most appropriate methods for treating and eliminating microbial contamination whether it is on the monuments or the surrounding environment. The laboratory also allows researchers and scholars to conduct some tests.
Also, the laboratory is equipped with specialized equipment for isolating, examining, and identifying microorganisms such as:
- Incubators
- Autoclaves
- Shaking incubators
- Laminar flow
- Lyophilization device
- Stone mill
- Evaporation device
- Optical microscope with a computer screen
