He also gave an insight into the programme. The areas covered health, textile designing, industries, environment, metallurgy and chemical industry, among others. Citing examples, Professor Sahni said it could be established in a murder case whether the bullets were similar to those from a suspected gun. Quality of clothes could be studied by study of their structure. The University installed TEM in the late 60s in the Biophysics Department and another version of the equipment in the Geology Department. Other institutes in the city having this facility are PGI, PEC and CFSL. Prof M.S. Johal, general secretary, said the PU laboratory was catering to research facilities.
