Instrumentation

The Central Analytical Laboratory facility, located in room C1B90 in the JSC Biotechnology Building, currently houses several Waters UPLCs and five mass spectrometers to provide structural information on various samples (from small organic molecules to large proteins). The facility is available to analyze samples from the both University of Colorado and non-¶¶Òõ¶ÌÊÓƵ sources.

The following instruments are housed in the facility:
