Laboratories 4 and 5 - for microscopy

These laboratory spaces are intended for various microscopy. The space can also be used to prepare samples. In the room, there is also a scanner considered for imaging roots, which may be used with permission from CIRC coordinators. In addition, there are desiccators in various sizes, objective glasses and coverslips for microscopy, and needles for material fixation. There is a sink with a water tap.
