Analytical Chemistry Core Facility

Overview

The primary goal of the Analytical Chemistry Core Facility (ACCF) is to provide quality analytical support in the area of chromatography and mass spectrometry. The secondary goal of the ACCF is to provide advanced training to all interested staff, but with a special focus on postdoctoral researchers. To help accomplish our goals we offer formalized training through hands on work shops twice a year as well as individualized training for researchers with immediate needs. This training is focused on sample preparation, sample analysis, and data processing depending on your needs. The metabolite workshop is typically held in April, with a focus on GC/MS sample prep and analysis, as well as brief introduction to LC/MS data processing. The Protein workshop is held in September and is focused primarily on protein extraction, separation and analysis by MALDI-TOFMS.
