About Proteomics

The core aims to accommodate the research needs of the academic community and provides services, facilities, and expertise to any group seeking to explore proteomics.

We provide a wide array of services for the characterization of protein samples, ranging from discovery proteomics, quantitative Tandem Mass Tag analyses, gel band identification, post-translational modification analyses, co-immunoprecipitation analyses, and more. We also provide sample preparation and data analysis as part of our service.

Samples are processed and analyzed on a sensitive nanoflow liquid chromatography system coupled to a high-resolution Orbitrap Fusion mass spectrometer.

Equipment

The proteomics core is equipped with a Thermo Orbitrap Fusion Tribrid ETD mass spectrometer and Thermo Easy nanoLC 1200 liquid chromatography system. This setup allows sensitive and versatile high-resolution data acquisition.

The core also has a variety of equipment specifically for sample preparation and processing, including speed vacuum concentrators, a Precellys tissue/cell homogenizer, and centrifuges.

Data processing is performed on workstations using Proteome Discoverer.

Some peripheral equipment is available for use at an hourly rate by users, see the pricing page.
