Biochemistry Departmental Equipment
The equipment listed on this page is typically available for all users in the department to access for their research needs. By sharing the equipment labs are able to access equipment that is either not regularly used or might be cost prohibitive for an individual lab to purchase and maintain.

Direct Detect IR Spectrophotometer
Used to quantify proteins, lipids, peptides using IR absorbance properties.
DNAstar Qseq and NGen Software
Provide Qseq and NGen software packages via Biochem IT. This is in addition to the DNA Star Lasergene Core Suite.

Fotodyne Gel Doc
Updated software and hardware to allow researchers to continue utilizing the Gel Doc system with modern Windows operating systems. The camera in the Gel Doc system was updated to a 2.0 MP camera allowing higher resolution gel images. The new computer configuration allows users to quickly and easily transfer their images directly to the Biochemistry File Server.

GE Typhoon FLA 9000 Gel Imaging Scanner
Typhoon FLA 9000 is a fast laser scanner optimized for quantitative phosphorimaging, ECL Plus Westerns, visible single fluorescence and gel documentation.
High-Performance Centrifuge
It can be used in harvesting cells for protein purification, in protein precipitations and solubility assays, and in clarifying solutions.

iBright CL1000
Imaging system for protein gels by white light (Ponceau, silver, or Coomassie stains) or of Western blots by chemiluminescent signal (horseradish peroxidase and alkaline phosphatase substrates); and of nucleic acid gels with ethidium bromide or SYBR dye staining.

Infinite® F500 Microplate Reader
Filter based Microplate reader for absorbance or fluorescence measurements

Infinite® M1000 PRO
Microplate readers are capable of measurement of absorbance (single point or scan), fluorescence (single point or excitation/emission scans), fluorescence polarization, luminescence, luminescence dual color, luminescence scan and Alpha Screen/Alpha LISA.
