TRAINING PROGRAMME ON THE USE, MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLE-SHOOTING OF ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROPHOTOMETER (AAS)










 
Training programmes
One of the main objective of NITUB is to organize training programmes. Since its inception in July 1994, NITUB has been conducting various training programmes on scientific equipment such as Infra Red, Ultra violet & Visible Spectrophotometers (IR & UV-VIS), Gas Chromatograph (GC), Gas Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS), High Performance Liquid Chromatograph (HPLC), Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS),

 Besides that NITUB also organizes training workshops on common laboratory equipment and common medical equipment. So far, NITUB has conducted 29 such training programmes through which 396 scientists, young faculty members, graduate students and technical personnel of the country have been trained-up (Table 1).
