The Indiana Molecular Biology Institute has two state-of-the-art facilities designed for use by multidisciplinary research groups. The DNA facility provides DNA sequencing and genetic fragment analysis on Applied Biosystems 3730 automated sequencing systems, as well as instrumentation and expertise for polymerase chain reaction, electroporation, phosphor imaging and densitometry. The Microscopy facility provides expertise and instrumentation for electron microscopy on a JEOL 5800LV scanning electron microscope with a digital image archive system and a JEOL 1010 transmission electron microscope. The microscopy facility also maintains all necessary equipment for the preparation of samples including stereoscopes, polymerization ovens and ultramicrotomes for transmission electron microscopy, and a critical point dryer and a sputter coater for scanning electron microscopy.
