Museum Laboratories

The laboratories support the museum’s scientific and professional work through sample processing, analysis, and the documentation of results.

This page presents the laboratory units and methods used in work with natural history material.

Museum laboratory work

An overview of laboratory units, methods, and equipment related to the museum’s scientific and professional work.

Laboratories

Laboratory infrastructure

The laboratories support the museum’s scientific, professional, and documentation work through analysis, material processing, and data preparation for research.

Laboratory work enables more detailed processing of material, the linking of field data with museum collections, and the application of modern methods in professional and scientific work.

Electron microscopy

Electron microscopy

This section is intended to describe the electron microscopy laboratory, imaging methods, and their application in the study of natural history material.

Electron microscopy provides detailed insight into structures that are not visible with standard optical methods and can be used in the study of various natural history samples.

  • microscopic analysis of samples
  • documentation of fine structures
  • support for professional and scientific research
Molecular laboratory

Molecular laboratory

This section is intended to describe the molecular laboratory, sample processing, and the methods used in molecular research.

The molecular laboratory supports research in which biological samples are processed using modern laboratory methods and linked with taxonomic, ecological, and collection data.

  • preparation and processing of biological samples
  • molecular methods in research
  • linking results with museum documentation
Analytical instrumentation

Analytical instrumentation

This section is intended to describe analytical equipment, measurements, and methods that support the study of natural history material.

Analytical instrumentation enables further processing and interpretation of samples, with emphasis on data that supports research, documentation, and the preservation of material.

  • sample analysis and measurement
  • processing results and documenting data
  • support for interdisciplinary research
