The purpose of the TEP Core Facilities is to provide convenient access to state-of-the-art equipment and technology. Experiment objectives that include methods of quantifications and observation of qualitative results are performed on our biomolecular analysis equipment. The Histology area is equipped with sample prep stations like our high precision cryosection tool and produces tissue sections from 0.5 to 100 microns thick prior to mounting on a glass micro slide, then followed by optional staining. Techniques and capabilities to perform intravital and live cell imaging are elevated to a high standard when using our LSM 710 confocal/Multi photon microscope. Optional sterilization is available for materials that are highly sensitive to unfavorable surroundings. All activities enhance, support, and further the research mission and endeavors of the GT community.
