Provides services in targeted metabolite profiling, untargeted metabolomics and stable isotope tracing analyses
Our core facility works closely with our academic and industrial clients to provide mass spectrometry-based solutions to separate, detect and quantify various small molecules. Specialized in water soluble metabolites we provide services from project conceptualization to publication. Our targeted methods have been optimized to provide a broad coverage of many different compound classes, effectively providing a wide look at cellular metabolism while limiting the number of sample injections.
Project design, grant applications, running samples, processing data, data analysis and help with interpretation. Method development is possible depending on our core’s priorities.
