Within the Molecular Biology Suite we have three core pieces of equipment:
-Implen NP80 spectrophotometer - Quantification of e.g. nucleic acid concentration/purity for both nl-ul volumes. (https://www.implen.de/product-page/implen-nanophotometer-np80-microvolume-cuvette-spectrophotometer/)
-Applied Biosystems SimpliAmp thermal cycler - Thermal cycler compatible with 96-well and microtube formats. (https://www.thermofisher.com/uk/en/home/life-science/pcr/thermal-cyclers-realtime-instruments/thermal-cyclers/simpliamp-thermal-cycler.html)
-Applied Biosystems QuantStudio 5 real-time PCR system - 96-well format (0.2 ml) real-time PCR system for gene expression analysis with multiplexing capability (https://www.thermofisher.com/uk/en/home/life-science/pcr/real-time-pcr/real-time-pcr-instruments/quantstudio-systems/models/quantstudio-3-5.html)
