 Soil Laboratory of Medical Geology

Soil Laboratory is one of the most important medical geological labs which follow the purposes as bellow: 
 Main activities of soil laboratory of medical geology include:
1-1-Detailed geochemical study of soil and sediments on region of interest (thematic- zone - regional) in medical laboratories for qualitative and quantitative analysis of different elements has effects on healthy of living creatures
2-1-Detailed study of polished sections and heavy minerals on region of interest for tracing environmental elements & their origin
3-1-Design of Sampling, field sampling and processing of different laboratories data as well as identification of pollutant areas based upon gynogenic and anthropogenic origin
4-1-Arrangement of medical geochemical reports, allowable level of pollutants and their anomaly on environment based upon medical standards
5-1-Efforts for gathering the most proper standards for sediments and soil of region with different applications (residual, industrial, recreative and agricultural purposes)
6-1-Drawing & arrangement of geochemical anomaly maps of medical laboratories and measurement of allowable level of pollutants & their thematic interpretation
7-1-GIS system application with different capabilities such as display, local research, data analysis and arrangement
8-1-Study of relations between geochemical processes has effect on environmental distribution of toxic & essential elements and diseases on humans & the other living creatures
9-1-Data arrangement of different geochemical factors such as water, soil, sediment, plant and natural radioactives has effect on different native diseases
