Greetings everyone,
We share an exciting field visit of our lab students (Mr. Bibhuti Das and Mr. Nitin Srivastava) to Sambhar Lake, Jaipur, Rajasthan. This expedition was conducted to collect samples of halophiles thriving in hypersaline environments. It was a thrilling experience to mine biotechnologically potential microbes.
As a glimpse of this remarkable visit, a series of captivating pictures were captured, showcasing the stunning natural beauty of Sambhar Lake and the scientific marvels that call it home. We eagerly await the findings of the research and want to extend our appreciation for their dedication and contribution.
