Molecular Biology & Proteomics Core Facilty Dartmouth College

Shared Resources

The MB&P Core Facility maintains a number of instruments for use on a walk-up basis. Some of these instruments require training before investigators are permitted to use them. Some, due to their location or complexity, have restricted access times. See the listing below for details on individual instruments. For further information please contact the MB&P Core.

QPCR instruments

ABI model 7700 and model 7500. Please see the Quantitative PCR section for details.

Biacore X

The Biacore X instrument uses Surface plasmon resonance for the detection of molecular interactions in real time. No labels are required and, in some cases, the binding partner can be recovered. See the Biacore website for complete details. The Biacore X is located in Room 243 Remsen. Training is required before use. Contact

Agilent Bioanalyser

The Agilent Bioanalyser uses a Lab on a Chip format for a variety of assays. It is most commonly used to judge the quality and quantity of RNA prior to QPCR and it can be used to perform a number of DNA and protein assays. See the Agilent website for more information. The Agilent Bioanalyser is located in Room 243 Remsen. Training is required before use. Contact

NanoDrop Spectrometer

The NanoDrop Spectrometer is a wonderful instrument. It does everything you would want a spectrophotometer to do and more. Please see the NanoDrop website or contact the MB&P Core for more information. The NanoDrop Spectrometer is located in Room 243 Remsen. Training is required before use. Contact

MALDI Mass spectrometer

Applied Biosystems Voyager DE Pro MALDI-Mass Spectrometer. See the MALDI Mass spectrometry section for details.
