Connecting Science and Technology for a brighter tomorrow

 

HISTORY OF THE GROUP

Soon after the establishment of the CSIR – North East Institute of Science & Technology (Formerly: Regional Research Laboratory), Jorhat in the year 1961, it was initiated to develop Analytical Services Division in order to provide analytical support to its R&D activities. Later on this Division got its own recognition as an Analytical Chemistry Group and involving in the own generated R&D projects. Presently this group is known as Analytical Chemistry group under Chemical Sciences and Technology Division (CSTD). Apart from analytical services provided to different in house as well as grants aided projects of the laboratory, it involves in the own generated R & D Projects. In the earlier stage, the group was involved in process development work on tea waste, essential oils, petrochemicals and pesticides etc. Presently, the main thrust areas of the group are focused on investigation of the different products with the help of different instrumental methods, chemical analysis including new research areas like development of nano-composites based electrochemical biosensors, Molecules to Materials to Devices (M2D) etc. This group, also, extends its support to different educational institutions, industries, NGO’s and govt. & semi-govt. organizations of NE region.
