The 279 sq. m (3000 sq. ft) facility, funded by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture, has recently been equipped with over $1.2 million in new, industrial-grade scientific equipment designed for the isolation of valuable components from Saskatchewan crops that will be used to study plant compounds that are used in biofuels, crop development and health products.
