Major instrumental facilities include core laboratories for molecular biology, microscopy and imaging, tissue culture, electrophysiology, contractility, radioactivity measurement, HPLC and immunoassay. HPLC equipment includes multiple dual pump systems, automatic injectors, multiwavelength detectors, direct radioactivity monitor and gradient controllers.

Direct access is available to a Storm phosphoimager and a Confocal microscope. An ICP-mass spectrometer and an Ion Trap capillary LC-mass spectrometer are also available as core facilities.

The Department also houses the Discovery-1 high-content screening platform which is a high throughput automated fluorescence microscope and image analysis system for drug discovery and functional genomics. The Discovery-1 is capable of obtaining images of cells and other microscopic objects invisible to the naked eye. Staff wishing to use the instrument should contact the staff responsible regarding the machine's potential uses, and any possible charges.
