Metabolomics Shared Resources (MSR)

Summary:

The Metabolomics Shared Resource (MSR) is occupying ~1,000 square feet of laboratory space. The lab space is dedicated to biological sample treatment, mass spectrometry analysis, data processing and analysis and molecular biology for cancer metabolism, metabolomics, drug metabolism, pharmacokinetics, and other bioanalytical studies.

MSR services offered include metabolite extraction from samples including serum, plasma, urine, and tumor tissues, metabolic profiling of human or animal samples, metabolomics data processing, analysis and interpretation.
