PhD Student Fahad Ali Kazmi Study Visit to KIT

During a recent study visit, PhD student Fahad Ali Kazmi (University of Tartu) joined the international research team at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology to explore innovative approaches in soil and plant science. The visit provided hands-on training in advanced techniques, including acid fumigation for preparing soil samples for IR-MS analysis, solution preparation for acid trap experiments, colorimetric analyses, and calibration of high-tech instruments such as the Gasmet FT-IR analyzer. This collaborative exchange strengthened technical expertise and fostered international networking.
