Cell Function
Type:
Clinical
Description:
This facility has dedicated cell culture rooms well equipped to perform all cell culture work. It is tailored for the biological evaluation of cell function, routinely determining the role of transgenes and the cytotoxic and cytoprotective activities of synthetic and natural compounds, in multiple cell models, including immortalized cells (human, monkey, rat, and mouse), primary cultures of liver and brain cells (rat and mouse), and stem cells. This is available as a full service provided by experienced technical personnel.
Additional dedicated equipment include bright field inverted microscope (Zeiss) with image acquisition and system (Leica), high-throughput capabilities with GloMax®-Multi+Microplate Multimode Reader (Promega), accepting 6, 12, 24, 48, 96 and 384-well plates, and equipped with luminometer, fluorescence, and visible/UV absorbance modules and dual injector system for 6 to 96-well plate formats; and xCELLigence RTCA SP (ACEA Biosciences) for real-time label free impedence-based cell analysis in 96 well format.
