NABL Accreditation
2 Labs @ VIT Vellore obtain the prestigious NABL Accreditation
Recently, two labs belonging to the Centre for Biomaterials Cellular and Molecular Theranostics (CBCMT) and Centre for Nanotechnology Research (CNR) at VIT successfully obtained NABL accreditation.
This is a significant milestone by these research centres as these accreditations shall pave for bridging the gap between industry, academia and researchers/students as it brings more credibility and authenticity to the research works.
NABL Accreditation:
NABL stands for National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories. It is a body under the Union Ministry of Science & Technology and this accreditation is subject to frequent checks making it even more credible.
A laboratory that has earned NABL accreditation is proven to have met strict standards for ethical behavior, quality control, and technical proficiency. Credibility and competence, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, customer confidence, international recognition, technical expertise, continuous improvement, research and development, and collaboration opportunities are some of the important aspects of NABL accreditation.
CBCMT Lab (CBCMTL):
The Centre for Biomaterials Cellular and Molecular Theranostics (CBCMT) lab located at the 4th floor of the A.L. Mudaliar Block has been assessed and accredited in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standards & the relevant requirements of NABL. The CBCMT lab has been accredited for in vitro cytotoxicity of medical devices as per ISO 10993:5.
CNR Lab:
The Centre for Nanotechnology Research (CNR) lab located at the ground floor of the Technology Tower (TT) has been assessed and accredited in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025:2017 standards for its Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) testing facilities in the areas of mechanical properties of metals.
