Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry, one of the five departments within the SSR College of Pharmacy is an integral part of pharmacy education program. It covers several aspects of new drug discovery with respect to novel drug design, synthesis and characterization of novel new chemical entities along with its development in collaboration with the other four departments of the Institute.
Infrastructure and List of Instruments & Equipments
The Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry has state-of the-art facilities to cater the needs of the Pharmacy profession in designing novel new drug entities. Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry has three undergraduate laboratories. The laboratories are designed and equipped with several advanced facilities including central ventilation system and very sophisticated fume hoods attached with vacuum and water supply. Emergency kits and fire extinguishers are provided in each laboratory with a special focus on the safety of the workforce. The laboratories are spacious and ventilated having adequate space for undergraduate, carry out experimental work smoothly.
