Core advise and assist investigators with advanced microscopy and flow cytometry procedures. Provides training and services in flow cytometry and biological imaging.

University of South Carolina NMR Core.

Core provides services for EI and CI spectra including high and low resolution analyses available; for GC-MS including positive ion and negative chemical ionization, with high resolution and MS/MS available for high sensitivity work; Electrospray and APCI including low resolution or accurate mass analysis of purified compounds by direct infusion or loop injection analysis; MS/MS available for structural analysis;LC-MS including electrospray and APCI ionization available. Separation by narrowbore or capillary HPLC. MS/MS available for quantitation, peptide microsequencing and protein identification, etc.; MALDI-TOF/TOF including analysis of polymers and biomolecules; ICP-MS including trace elemental detection with high resolution. User training available for students and researchers who will be using the instrumentation for extended projects.

Core analytical facility with research focus on geochemistry and chemical oceanography. Provides plasma-source mass spectrometers for trace metal and isotope ratio measurements on wide variety of sample types.
