CORE--HORMONE ASSAY FACILITY

荷尔蒙分析亚核为研究人员提供了许多 与生物激素测定有关的分析方法 体液。分核为样品提供空间、设备和人员 分析和方法的发展。调查人员支付一笔费用来支付 用品成本和按比例计价的服务合同。可用的分析 包括L)胰岛素、2)胰高血糖素、3)皮质醇、4)儿茶酚胺、5)生长 激素和6)C-肽。有些“微量”化验方法可用于 分析极少量血浆或血液中的激素水平。一些人 检测的目的是测量特定物种的荷尔蒙。 调查人员确定这一次核心项目的用户增加了 对所提供服务的大约一半的需求，以及对 其余的化验结果。

The Hormone Assay Subcore provides investigators access to a number of analytical methods related to the measurement of hormones in biologic fluids. The subcore provides space, equipment and personnel for sample analysis and method development. Investigators pay a charge to cover the cost of supplies and pro-rated service contracts. The analyses available include l) insulin, 2) glucagon, 3) cortisol, 4) catecholamines, 5) growth hormone, and 6) c-peptide. Some "micro" assays are available for the analysis of hormone levels in very small volumes of plasma or blood. Some assays are designed to measure hormones in particular species. Investigators identified as users of this subcore project an increased demand for about half of the services offered, and a constant demand for the rest of the assays.
