The laboratory has the complete equipment of a microbiology laboratory, including laminar flow cabins, autoclaves, stoves, incubators, orbitals, masticators, pH-meters, shakers, microscopes, centrifuges, etc. On the other hand, it has equipment for the determination of mycotoxins by ELISA techniques (plate reader) or HPLC (HPLC and UPCL chromatographic system with fluorescence and diode array detectors). It also has a molecular biology laboratory equipped with what is necessary to carry out the identification of species, including a PCR.
