The research team currently has three laboratories (30, 70 and 90 m2) located at the Faculty of chemistry and the Pleiades Multidisciplinary Research Center at the University of Murcia. These laboratories are equipped with gas extraction cabinets, safety cabinets, refrigerators, freezers and intakes for compressed air, mains water, distilled water and chromatography gases.
Moreover, the research gropus of the University of Murcia can access the services of The Scientific and Technical Research Area (ACTI), which groups together specialised instrumentation and facilities services and sections which, due to their characteristics, go beyond the scope of the various research groups, obtaining maximum performance from the available resources.
