Biomolecular Analysis

The Biomolecular Analysis Core provides tools that enable researchers to identify, characterize, and quantify DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, and carbohydrates, using various scientific techniques. This field provides crucial data for understanding biological processes, developing medical diagnostics, and creating new therapies. Key techniques include spectroscopy, chromatography, and electrophoresis, which help determine molecular structure, detect interactions, and assess purity and quantity.  

Services

Our services include advanced analysis to characterize the structure, composition, and interactions of biomolecules. Our capabilities include quantitative and qualitative analysis of proteins, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules using techniques such as mass spectrometry, chromatography, and spectroscopy. We offer services for molecular identification, purity assessment, and interaction studies, as well as support for high-throughput screening and custom assay development. These resources enable researchers to gain detailed insights into biomolecular properties and functions for applications in basic science, drug development, and diagnostics.
