Methoden


Accurate Mass Determination (2ppm)
Activity of human thrombocytes and leukocytes (Multicolor analysis of activation markers)
Analysing the chemical composition of specimens at a high resolution, using analytical TEM. Main application is the research focus nanotoxicology, where it is necessary to follow the path of nanoparticles within tissues or cells.
Analysing the fine structure of specimens using electron tomography, to detect changes in the shape and location of macromolecules within tissues or cells in 3D.
Apoptosis (DNA Sub-G1, Mitochondrial membrane potential, Annexin V vs.PI, Cleaved Caspase-3, TUNEL)
Cell cycle (DNA staining, Phospho-Histone H3, Pyronin Y)
Cell-based assays (Proliferation, cytotoxicity, viability, apoptosis)
Cell/tissue culture (Establishment/culturing of primary cells and cell lines)
Cellular proliferation (BrdU labeling)
Clonal expansion (Single cell plate sorting (FACS))
DNA ploidy (DNA content)
