ABOUT THE DEPARTMENT
The Department of Biochemistry functions in the First floor of the Anatomy block. It satisfies all the requirements of the National Medical Council in terms of infrastructure as well as faculty requirements.
The Department of Biochemistry Lab functions round the clock, with an established Quality Policy of offering the best clinical support and patient care, through remarkable Quality-Assured reports that are continuously monitored using effective Quality Tools.
It encompasses the units of
* Phlebotomy
* Biochemistry parameters
* Hormones
* Arterial Blood Gas (ABG)
* Hba1c
* Electrolytes
The team is committed to give its outstanding performance in alignment to the hospital’s escalating needs, such that the lab’s testing range and scope addresses the entire clinical requirement of the hospital.
All equipments are Fully Automated and interfaced with LIMS.
1.The lab’s operational efficiency is commendable with a record of less than 2 hour of turnaround time for more than 75% of test requests.
- Lab plays a critical role in all the clinical research activities of the hospital and is pivotal in the conduct of courses of lab medicine.
- The department handles approximately more than 4,500 tests per day.
- The department is backed by a team of committed, qualified and well-trained staffs with professional excellence focused towards continual improvement.
- Complete adherence to safety practices.

FACILITIES
UG LAB- Well equipped Biochemistry Lab for Undergraduate and Paramedical students.
PG LAB- Research Lab with facilities -Electrophoresis, Chromatography, Genetic studies for Postgraduate students.
SERVICE LABORATORY IN THE HOSPITAL:
There is separate biochemistry laboratory in the hospital which is functioning 24*7. It provides biochemical diagnostic services for patients attending OP & IP and emergency departments attached to medical college & hospital. The 24 hours lab in hospital is well equipped and adequately man powered. The staffs are employed in three shifts. The total number of patients utilizing the lab service is increasing every year. The biochemical waste generated are segregated and disposed as per biomedical waste management protocol. To improve the lab standards we are running internal quality and external quality control programmes.
