 | Technology Hubs Directed by Min Li and part of the High Throughput Biology Center, the fee-for-service ChemCore offers a structurally diverse compound repository and high throughput robotics laboratory services for enzymatic and biologic assays. Flow Cytometry Core Analytic Laboratories This School of Medicine resource facility is equipped with instrumentation and expertise for the analysis, characterization and separation of particles as diverse as beads, cells and chromosomes. Available to Johns Hopkins researchers on a fee-for-service or fee-for-time basis, the laboratory uses two three-color FACScans and a dual laser four-color FACSCalibur, and has a dual laser FACSVantage SE and a dual laser FACSAria. Genetic Resources Core Facility An institutional service center of The Johns Hopkins University, the GRCF includes a Corestore for bioproducts, the Cell Center for cell line establishment, banking and related tissue culture services, the Fragment Analysis Facility for DNA-based test development and genotyping and the DNA Analysis Facility for DNA sequencing and related services. High Throughput Biology Center In addition to its active research programs, the HiT Center's four core components offer resources to study interactions of chemical compounds, gene products, cells and organisms and the networks formed by these interactions. The JHMI Microarray Core Facility provides cost-effective, time-efficient access to microarray technology and an environment that facilitates effective analysis and sharing of microarray data compiled for research purposes. The facility's services are available to Johns Hopkins researchers on a fee-for-service basis and to Hopkins researchers and others through appropriate research collaborations. The Microscope Facility assists investigators throughout the University with research requiring light and electron microscopy and electronic imaging. It contains five electron microscopes, two confocal microscopes, two digital fluorescence microscopes, several computer workstations for image processing and a comprehensive preparation laboratory. Middle Atlantic Mass Spectrometry Laboratory Home of the research laboratory of Dr. Robert Cotter, MAMS places a strong emphasis on collaborations with investigators from around the world and from within the Johns Hopkins community. NMR Spectroscopy and Imaging Facility Available to approved users on a fee-for-time basis and through collaborations with facility researchers, this core resource offers NMR spectroscopy resources to researchers in and around the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. A high-field 14.1 Tesla, 600 MHz NMR spectrometer is available to approved Johns Hopkins users for high resolution NMR studies of biological macromolecules including proteins and nucleic acids. http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Research/Resources/hi_field Biomolecular NMR Center at Johns Hopkins University offers Hopkins researchers access to high-field NMR resources, data analysis and interpretation on a fee-for-service basis. Please contact Ananya Majumdar at ananya@jhu.edu for more information. Protein/Peptide Sequencing Facility Directed by Peter Pedersen, this facility offers fee-for-service protein and DNA synthesis and purification, as well as protein, peptide and DNA sequencing. Led by Robert Cole, the Proteomics Facility currently provides Hopkins investigators fee-for-service access to three mass spectrometers (a MALDI-TOF and two electrospray ionization mass spectrometers, one with a TOF analyzer and the other with an ion trap analyzer) and a selection of the latest HPLCs and other chromatographic instruments. Available to Johns Hopkins researchers, the Transgenic Core Laboratory produces transgenic, knockout and knockin mice, cryopreserves mouse embryos and sperm, and rederives mice from frozen embryos on a fee-for-service basis. | ||||||
