Facility Details

The Research Laboratory Core is a regional Service Center that performs high throughput assays for the determination of proteins, peptides, hormones and other biochemical markers in support of preclinical and clinical research studies. The laboratory has the equipment and capacity to perform standard immunoassays as well as multiplexed ELISAs. The Research Laboratory Core provides standardized sample handling that upholds high quality control by, for example, minimizing freeze/thaw cycles. The high volume of assays processed in the lab supports reduced investigator cost through batch analysis of samples and direct manufacturer pricing. Quality control is maintained by including manufacturers’ controls as well as low, medium, and high value in-house controls in each assay.
