Instrumentation Update
- Thermo U3000 HPLC
Our Shimadzu Nexera-I, the only HPLC at CRCF, experienced a malfunction that required a substantial amount of funds for repair. In response, Dr. Bongsup Cho has generously transferred his HPLC to CRCF, making it available for all users.
- Leica Ivesta Stereoscope
We purchased a Leica Ivesta Stereoscope following a successful demonstration in April. This stereoscope has quickly become popular and is in high demand among our users. It has already been utilized for events such as the URI College of Pharmacy High School Exploration and URI Welcome Day. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in the INBRE 2024 summer Workforce Development and Training Program, particularly in the worm model neurobiology studies. Users can now reserve the stereoscope on ClusterMarket.
- Instrument transferred from URI LVIP laboratory
In June, several instruments will be transferred from The Laboratory of Viral Immunity and Pathogenesis (LVIP) at URI Providence campus to CRCF. These instruments include:
Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer
BioRad Bioplex 200
CTL S5 ELISPOT reader
Miltenyi MacsQuant-10
BioRad ChemiDoc XRS+
Biotek Cytation 3
ThermoFisher Savant SPD1010
Miltenyi AutoMacs Pro
Beckman Optima XL-100K
These additions will significantly enhance our research capabilities and provide users with access to state-of-the-art technology. If you are interested in using any of this equipment, please contact Ang or Janet.
