Analytical Facility
- Application
- Our analytical facility supports IBL researchers by centralizing major instrumentation under a single management structure within dedicated laboratories. The available equipment includes both liquid and gas chromatography systems, along with a range of advanced mass spectrometry instruments such as Q-ToF, QqQ, and MALDI-ToF. The primary goal of the facility is to maximize the efficient use of all equipment, maintain a high standard of analytical expertise, and ensure the cost-effective operation of these sophisticated instruments. This setup provides researchers with access to analytical tools and methodologies for the detection and quantification of secondary metabolites, with a particular focus microbial and plant systems.
- Availability
- The Analytical Facility is open for all students, PhD workers, researchers of the IBL as well as guests.
