Introduction

The Central Laboratories Unit (CLU) provides analytical and technical support and consultancy to serve efficiently the University’s research activities and testing needs. In addition, it optimizes and upgrades the practical performance of QU technical staff and students. Moreover, CLU provides hands-on experience in the use of analytical instruments in QU. The main objectives of the CLU are research, training and chemical analysis conducting services for clients. The Central Laboratories unit (CLU) is working continuously on optimizing its performance to meet the criteria of ISO/IEC 17025:2017 and maintain its accreditation with the American Association of Laboratory Accreditation (A2LA), which was first achieved in the year 2010. Since then, more methods have been added to the list of accreditations renewed during subsequent audits.
