Scientists, students as well as cooperation partners of the center have access to our flowcytometry and microscopy core facilities.
After a hands-on introduction to the machines, users can work on their own, however support by our dedicated staff is available.
The CCR Core Facility FACS is equipped with following flow cytometry analyzers: BD LSRFortessa, BD LSRFortessa X-20. Additionally a BD FACSMelody cell sorter is being operated by the facility, in order to provide the CCR scientists with high quality cell sorting service.
The core facility for microscopy not only covers the numerous standard microscopes at the individual working groups, but also the more complex systems including the confocal laserscanning microscope ZEISS LSM700, the Visitron livecell time-lapse microscope and several epifluorescence microscopes. In addition slidescanners are available for digitalization of brightfield and fluorescence samples.
Services encompass introduction and training, troubleshooting and general support at the systems, as well as with the subsequent analyses of the image data. Histomorphometric as well as deconvolution softwares are available.
Detailed information concerning the technical specifications of the machines as well guidelines on how to book them are available in the intranet of the center.
