The facility provides a variety of services to individuals who wish to utilize transgenic animals as part of their research program. The facility maintains equipment necessary for the creation of transgenic animals via microinjection or somatic cell nuclear transfer and is available to life science researchers for technical service and for training of a limited number of individuals. All work to be performed in this facility must be scheduled with the professor-in-charge, as the facility is not staffed full-time.
Equipment housed in the facility includes two microinjection workstations, micropipette pullers, a microforge, stereo-zoom microscope and CO2 incubator. Additional supporting equipment located in nearby laboratories to which access may be granted includes a heated microcentrifuge, tri-gas incubators, stereo-zoom microscopes, inverted microscope, biosafety cabinet, osmometer, pH meter, embryo freezing machine, cell fusion machine, gel electrophoresis equipment and UV transilluminator.
