The BioLab is a Biological and Chemical Analysis Facility at FCT-NOVA. This facility is devoted to the comprehension of cellular and molecular mechanisms, from the in vitro characterization of molecular interactions to the in vivo validation in model animals. The BioLab facility gathers in a single unit a unique set of state-of-the-art biophysical and biological technologies.
Available Technologies:
- Circular Dichroism
- Multi Parametric Surface Plasmon Resonance
- Isothermal Titration Calorimetry
- Differential Scanning Calorimetry
- MicroScale Thermophoresis
- Flow Cytometry
Animal Experimentation Laboratory
The BioLab Animal Experimentation Laboratory will have two clean separate specialized rooms and equipment with closely-controlled environment and a separate room for unclean activities to reduce the potential for cross-contamination
