Our laboratories have the infrastructure for work under Biosafety Level 1 experiments, including all standard equipment for:
- MICROBIOLOGY - clean bench, autoclave, shakers, incubators, centrifuges etc.
- MOLECULAR BIOLOGY - thermocycler, horizontial electrophoresis system etc.
- ENZYME CHARACTERIZATION - vertical electrophoresis systems, thermoshakers, sonicator, FPLC etc.
- BIOCATALYSIS AND DOWNSTREAM PROCESSING - Rotating bed bioreactor, ultrafiltration unit, rotary evaporator etc.
- ANALYTICS - 1 Microplate spectrophotometer, 1 Microplate spectrophotofluorometer, 1 GC-FID, 1 HPLC-DAD, access to MS, XRD and NMR facilities of the department and to many more (CD, SEM, TEM, AFM, DLS etc.) via the infrastructure of the University of Crete and FORTH.
