Date of establishment

Drug analysis and development center has been established since June 2014.

 

Location

Manipal College of Pharmaceutical sciences, Manipal

 

Objective

To share the research infrastructure to others who could not establish the sophisticated infrastructure at their level for their research needs

 

Conduct

  1. The Requester shall submit the request in the prescribed format to ‘The Principal MCOPS’ for sample analysis either for drug estimations, characterizations or drug evaluation. 
  2. Depending upon the type of analysis, the request will be referred to the appropriate location for the further processing.
  3. The HOD of the location concerned will analyse the request and puts a note for the appropriate charges to be levied for the analysis.
  4. The requester shall pay the charges in Manipal University finance and submit the request form to the location concerned along with the sample and payment receipt.
  5. The location concerned will conduct the test/s in reasonable time limit and submits the report to the requester concerned.
