- crusher and planetary ball mill for developing preparations for geochemical studies,
- alpha spectrometer for studying environmental samples with low content of radioactive elements,
- lens with components for digital microscope,
- growth chamber for breeding plants in strictly specified conditions,
- silk-screen printer that enables precise, effective and repeatable application of paste,
- twin screw extruder for producing a mixture of polymers with active substances,
- as well as specialist chemical reagents for scientific research on the effects of nanoparticles on organisms.
