Numerous specifically equipped laboratories, workshops, and preparation facilities form an important prerequisite for conserving the existing collections and supporting scientific research.
- Laboratories: facilities available for sieving, acid etching, grinding, rock-cutting, and preparation with air abrasives, as well as an amber lab, hydrofluoric acid lab, and histology lab
- Modern molecular lab with seven workstation: modern robotics for automated DNA / RNA extraction and amplification
- Micro-CT: Station with the most advanced desktop model Bruker Skyscan 1272 including rapid control and reconstruction computer
- Microscopy laboratories with, e.g., SEM (Evo LS 15 (Zeiss)), Digital Microscope (VHX-500D (Keyence)), Leica automated microscope system, interference contrast microscope
- Specialized scanners for high-resolution scanning of insect cases and from herbarium sheets for effective digitization of collections
- Ultra low temperature freezers (-85 ° C) for biological tissue collection for molecular studies
- Nitrogen chamber (12 m³) to quarantine non-toxic biological material
- Computer-controlled degreasing
- Large preparation rooms for 3-D reconstructions and the assembly of models and dioramas
