Cellular physiology

Achievements

The core facility regularly develops and validates new tests and assays in association with the research teams and their collaborators (see table below).   

For example, we have been able to miniaturize many assays to fit small volumes of preclinical rodent samples.  

The core facility has also developed with an industrial partner new immunoassays for non-commercially available targets (e.g. glucagon). 

If you have a development idea that you think would be of interest to different users, please contact the core facility: physio.cell.cr.chum@ssss.gouv.qc.ca
