Services
The University of Utah Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics Core Facility provides mass spectrometry services and consultation for the University of Utah and Huntsman Cancer Institute (HCI) research communities, and operates on a fee-for-service basis. Refer to Prices and Fees for the charge-back costs for services.
The primary focus of the Facility is support of proteomics research at the University of Utah. However, the Facility also continues to provide general mass spectrometry services for the University community, as well as biotech companies in the regional area and other academic institutions. A broad range of research applications and sample types are accepted for analysis (e.g. proteins, natural products, synthetic peptides, small molecules, polymers, PCR products, nucleic acids, and other biomolecules).The Facility is equipped with several high-performance mass spectrometers and accessory HPLC equipment. These instruments are operated by the MS Core Facility personnel only. Users are welcome to utilize workstation computers to review their spectra and results (in addition to the hardcopy or electronic results sent to them).
Proteomics Proficiency Testing
Starting soon, the Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics Facility will be participating regularly in an international proteomics proficiency evaluation conducted by the Association of Biomolecular Resource Facilities (ABRF). The results of these studies will compare the competency of our Facility with other leading proteomics laboratories nationwide for the structural analysis of proteins and peptides. The standings of those results will be posted on this site as they are available.
