Scientific tools 2

In our research work we use a variety of molecular, cellular, histological and immunological tools.

microsatellites PCR based molecular markers – we use microsatellite markers, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and restriction fragment lenght polymorphisms (RFLP) for genotyping.
SNP

Sanger DNA sequencing is done using Applied Biosystem's 3730xl DNA Analyzer.
We routinely do molecular cloning, and vector construction.

qRT-PCR

Expression studies and SNP genotyping using qRT-PCR on an ABI 7500 real-time PCR system.

Flourescence imaging

Immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridisation and fluorescence imaging.

FACS

Fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) using a BD Biosciences LSR II four-laser cell sorting system.

Flexivent

We use Flexivent for investigation of respirator mechanics.

Multiplex immunoassays

Multiplex immunoassays on a BioRad BioPlex 200 system.
