U30-S01. Sample preparation for proteomic analysis

Sample preparation for proteomic analysis

This service includes all necessary steps to prepare samples for different proteomic analyses: protein extraction from tissues, cells or fluids, precipitation, cleaning, desalting, quantification and digestion (in gel or in solution) with proteolytic enzimes (trypsin, chymotrypsin, lys-C…), to obtain the correspondent peptides.

Customer benefits

Biological samples are processed and prepared following standardized protocols by personnel highly specialized in techniques for protein analysis.
The service allows organizations without prior experience in protein or proteomic analysis to avoid performing any experiment, only needing to provide the biological specimen to the Unit.

Target customer

Organizations or research groups interested in performing protein or proteomic analyses in a wide range of biological samples: cells, tissues, biofluids, protein extracts, etc.

U19-S03. Clinical Analysis Laboratory

Clinical Analysis Laboratory

The clinical analysis laboratory that performs a wide variety of analysis: (biochemistry, hematology, coagulation, urine analysis, blood gas analysis, different biomarkers, hormones, allergens) in various animal species (rat, mouse, rabbit, pig, sheep, dog, and cat). Specific methodologies are used in each animal species, having all techniques validated according to their physiological and pathological identity. It also has a formulation laboratory equipped to formulate, reconstitute and guarantee the correct storage of the test products used in these studies.

Customer benefits

The laboratories are certified with ISO-9001 and Good Laboratory Practices (GLP), strict quality standards that allow the production of high-precision results.
Also, the studies can be performed under regulatory requirements too, since the performing institution is Certified for Good Laboratory Practices.
Therefore, studies can be carried out in compliance with the strict guidelines of regulatory agencies, ensuring the reliability and traceability of all results and tests carried out in their different services.

Target customer

The services offered in this unit may be of interest to different companies and laboratories that work within the pharmaceutical industry. Companies whose objective is to test possible candidates for molecules, drugs or medical devices.
With this service, companies and laboratories ensure that they report reliable and reproducible results in all their studies, guaranteeing the traceability and viability of analyzes obtained.
