The Central Analytical Services Laboratory (CASL) is a support laboratory of EIOTECH that:
. Handles rouiine chemical analyses for{ood and {eed, plants, soils and fedilizers, water and wastewater and
products bioLechnology researchesi
. Tests, modifies and standardizes analytical methods;
. Develops new analytical techniques.
The CASL accepts rcquests far analytical services from vaious institutiahs within and outsidq UPLB.
