TEID Specialized Instrumentation

	Stereomicroscope The Nikon SMZ800N with a 1-8x zooming range, with higher magnification than conventional models and enables high-resolution observation. The digital camera allow to take color photos of the samples and document the results.
	Tissue Homogenizer For complete lysis and homogenization of any biological sample. The homogenizer is capable of processing up to 24 samples in 2 ml tubes. Can be combined for use with DNA and RNA extraction kits.
	BioRad GelDoc System The BioRad Gel Doc system, complemented with a charge-coupled device (CCD) camera, serves to capture images in real-time, accurately position and focus the image and acquire photos of any type of gel. This system also has the Image Lab software to acquire images that can be optimized, annotated, analyzed, and print acquired pictures.
	QIAxpert For fast nucleic acid quantification and quality control. Allow quantification of DNA, RNA, and protein. The QIAxpert is capable of analyzing up to 16 samples within 2 minutes by just pipet samples onto the QIAxpert slide and placing them into the reader.
	DeNovix DS-11 FX+ It is an easy-to-use compact instrument that delivers full-spectrum UV-Vis analysis and fluorescence capability, making it ideal for rapid nucleic acid and protein quantification.
	CO2 Incubator It is designed for preparing and cultivating cell cultures. This CO2 incubator exerts precise control of the following parameters: temperature, CO2 content, O2/N2 content, and relative humidity.
	BioRad GelDoc EQ System This gel documentation system use a charge coupled device (CCD) camera to capture images in real time, which allows more accurately position and focus the image. This system also has the Quantity One software to acquire images that can be optimized, annotated, analyzed and printed.
	Mettler Toledo Balance This analytical balance delivers a high weighing accuracy and has a capacity of 120 grams and a readability of 0.1 milligrams.
	SpectraMax M3 Multi-Mode Microplate Reader This is a versatile multimode system providing: UV-visible absorbance, fluorescence intensity and glow luminescence detections. This equipment has full spectral range detection for cuvettes and 96 well plates.
	5810R Eppendorf Centrifuge The 5810R centrifuge can be used to spin 1.5/2.0ml tubes, 15 ml and 50 ml tubes and 96 well plates. The temperature range of this centrifuge is from -9ºC to 40ºC.
	BioRender It is a web application tool to help scientists create high-quality scientific figures, diagrams, and illustrations for publications, presentations, posters, patents, outreach, and more from a scientifically accurate image library.
	Incubator Shaker Used for bacterial culture for applications such as cloning and protein expression. The temperature range is from 10°C to 80°C with a speed range of 25-500 rpm.
	Shel Lab Refrigerated Incubator Shel Lab Refrigerated Incubator is a low temperature incubator ideal for testing B.O.D. of sewage and wastewater, as well as other low and room temperature applications.
	Amaxa Biosystems Nucleofactor II The basic Nucleofector II Device is a single cuvette based system. It allows efficient transfection of hard-to-transfect cell lines and primary cells with different substrates, e.g. DNA vectors or siRNA oligonucleotides, in low throughput format as well as transfection of malaria parasites.
	Clone Manager Software A computer program used for in silico cloning (= cloning simulation), enzymatic digestions, sequence analysis, construct designs, operations and graphic map drawing. The user can also view or edit sequence files, find open reading frames, translate genes, or find genes or text in files.
	GraphPad Prism Software A program based in a combination of basic biostatistics, curve fitting and scientific graphing in one program (Data analysis (statistics) and graphics representations).
	BioRad Automated Cell Counter TC10 The TC10 automated cell counter provides a total count of mammalian cell and a live/dead ratio in one step
	Nikon Fluorescence Microscope The Nikon E800 is a fixed-stage upright microscope configured to image in transmitted light, DIC, and epifluorescence modes. This microscope also has digital camera and software for images acquisition.
