Lifegeno Genomics Laboratory, located in the heart of the city, extends to over 4000 sqft of Clean Room Laboratory. Our state-of-the-art facility is systematically designed according to Biosafety Level 3 (BSL-3) area to avoid any cross contamination, and to maintain top quality of the reports. The infrastructure is planned according to guidelines laid down by CAP & NABL which hold the highest authority over approving the infrastructure of a genetic laboratory.
The areas and sections of the facility include:

Microbial Extraction Area

This specialized area is maintained under Negative Pressure. It holds various advanced equipment for performing extraction of infectious microbial and viral of nucleic acids. It is preceded by an Ante room to avoid mixing of environmental air.

Genomic Extraction Area

We have a separate room for extraction of Genomic nucleic acids. This room is also maintained under negative pressure. Dedicated bio safety cabinets are used for extraction of DNA and RNA. In this room we work on all types of samples – blood, buccal swab, all forensic samples, bone marrow, prenatal tissues like amniotic fluid & chorionic villus, fresh tissue specimens, as well as FFPE (formalin fixed paraffin embedded) tissues.

Reagent Area

The cleanest area in the entire lab, this room is maintained at a positive pressure, and devoid of any contaminants. This area is DNA & RNA free. It is spacious enough to accommodate the required deep freezers, fridges to keep in the reagents for preparation of master mix & various experiments.

Tissue culture Area

The room provided for culturing of various sample including blood, bone marrow, amniotic fluid, cord blood, etc. Equipped with carbon dioxide incubators and inverted phase contrast microscope for visualization of tissue culture colonies.

Harvesting and FISH Area

The non-sterile, post-culture area dedicated for harvesting of various tissues. FISH processing and hybridization are carried out here.

Microscopy (Dark Room)

Entire Cytogenetics and FISH reporting is based on visual interpretation. The Microscopy room has trinocular brightfield high resolution microscope with CCD camera, and fluorescent imaging. Dark room microscopy and photograph capture are done in this area.

Central Area

The most eye catching and filled with advanced technologies machineries are placed in this area which includes Sanger, NGS etc. The largest and the most important area of the whole facility which invokes the essence of the modern medicine and technology. Includes area for library preparation, Template & Post PCR.

As your loved ones are our loved ones, we chose extra care for them by making them relaxed and calm before or after the consultations in our elegant and spacious VIP lounge especially for our patients.
