The Microscopy Laboratory at the Institute of Chemistry, Unicamp, is committed to advancing scientific research in the field of chemistry.

Our mission is to offer comprehensive support to researchers and corporate users.

Our well-equipped laboratory includes essential instruments like Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM), and Optical Microscopy.

Additionally, we provide sample preparation techniques, including ultramicrotome, ultracryomicrotome, and sputter coating. We also offer training and technical support.

IFGW glass workshop, equipped with specialized staff, provides expertise in glass forming, welding, and cutting of Quartz and Borosilicate, as well as in design and technical drawing.

Core produces and supplies liquid helium and nitrogen to the entire IFGW academic community. Laboratory is equipped with helium liquefier from Linde and nitrogen liquefier from Stirling Cryogenics. In addition, it maintains complex support infrastructure essential for production and distribution of cryogenic liquids.

IFGW hosts a mechanical workshop that produces precision components for advanced research projects.

Gleb Wataghin Institute of Physics (IFGW/UNICAMP) hosts a multi-user equipment facility, the LAMULT – an Open Facility-type Multi-user Laboratory that integrates various scientific instruments within single location.

The Institutional Laboratory of X-ray is equipped with equipments that work with the following analytical techniques: single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS).

The Laboratory for Physicochemical Analysis of IQ-UNICAMP houses equipment for a range of analytical techniques:

Thermal Analysis comprises techniques that measure the physical or chemical properties of a substance, or its reaction products, under controlled temperature variation.

Atomic Spectrometry enables multi-element determination in solution samples.

Elemental Analysis is used to determine the Carbon, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen content in solid and viscous samples.

Nitrogen Physisorption is a technique used to determine the surface area and pore size of solid materials.

The LIBio (Institutional Biosafety Laboratories) belongs to the Institute of Chemistry of UNICAMP (IQ - UNICAMP) and are structured to accommodate works involving pathogenic bacteria and fungi or genetically modified organisms (GMO). These three laboratories are part of the CTNBio (Brazilian National Technical Council of Biosafety) accredited areas and have their research activities monitored by CIBio -IQ (Internal Commission of Biosafety).

The Institutional Spectroscopy Laboratory is equipped with a comprehensive suite of instruments for spectroscopic analysis. Our capabilities include absorption spectroscopy (UV-Vis, NIR, and IR), Raman scattering, and fluorescence emission spectroscopy.

The LICEL (Institutional Cell Culture Laboratory) belongs to the Institute of Chemistry of UNICAMP (IQ - UNICAMP) and it was designed and implemented to accommodate works involving the cultivation of mammalian and insect cells, including genetically modified organisms (GMOs). This laboratory is accredited by CTNBio (Brazilian National Technical Council of Biosafety), and its research activities are monitored by CIBio - IQ (Internal Commission of Biosafety).

The Institutional Laboratory of Mass Spectrometry and Chromatography features several high- and low-resolution mass spectrometers, coupled with liquid and gas chromatographs, as well as an ICP-MS. In addition, we have liquid chromatographs available that operate with other types of detectors. The laboratory collaborates with activities carried out at the Institute of Chemistry, in external academic sectors, and also within private enterprise.
