EQUIPMENT FOR SOUTHWESTERN OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。NIH INBRE设备补助金将用于支持生物医学研究和加强相关科学的本科教学。已经购买了一些项目，以提高目前由INBRE资助的SWOSU教师的能力，并发展目前不在校园内的研究能力。(1) qantmaster荧光仪的Q-6发射通道选项-增加第二个通道将允许通过长通或带通滤波器选择性收集所有波长的光，从而提高其对蛋白质固有荧光的灵敏度。(2)在进行伴随标准分子生物学技术的低温反应（例如，结扎反应）以及为各种仪器保持热稳定的环境时，需要一个冷藏槽。（3-5）培养-摇床，速度Vac和基因脉冲器Xcell真核系统-这些项目将加强微生物学和遗传学的研究。（6-7）倒置显微镜和层流，II类，BSLA2生物安全柜？这些项目将在西南医科大学正在开发的组织培养实验室中使用。这个实验室将开放给校园里所有在研究中使用组织培养的科学家。层流罩是必要的，既可以防止无菌组织培养物在操作过程中暴露于细菌和真菌的来源，又可以确保组织样品不会污染实验室环境。倒置显微镜将用于细胞计数。(8)大幅面海报尺寸打印机？这台打印机将用于打印科学会议上展示的高质量彩色海报。它将提供给教师和本科生研究人员。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The NIH INBRE Equipment Grant will be used to support biomedical research and to enhance undergraduate instruction in the related sciences. A number of items have been purchased to enhance the capabilities of SWOSU faculty currently supported by INBRE grants and to develop research capabilities not presently on campus. The following items were, or are in the process of being purchased: (1) Q-6 Emission Channel Option for Quantmaster Fluorimeter - The addition of a second channel will allow all wavelengths of light to be selectivity collected through long-pass or band-pass filters, enhancing its sensitivity to the intrinsic fluorescence of proteins by orders of magnitude. (2) A refrigerated bath is required for performing low-temperature reactions accompanying standard molecular biology techniques (e.g., ligation reactions), and for maintaining a thermo-stable environment for a variety of instrumentation. (3-5) Incubator-Shaker, Speed Vac and Gene Pulser Xcell Eukaryotic System - These items will enhance research in microbiology and genetics. (6-7) Inverted Microscope and Laminar Flow, Class II, BSLA2 Biosafety Cabinet ? These items will be used in the Tissue Culture Laboratory under development at SWOSU. This lab will be available to all scientists on campus employing tissue cultures in their research. The Laminar Flow hood is necessary to both prevent exposure of sterile tissue cultures to sources of bacteria and fungi during manipulations and to ensure that tissue samples will not contaminate the laboratory environment. The Inverted microscope will be used for cell counting. (8) Large Format Poster Size Printer ? This printer will be used to print high quality color posters for presentation at scientific meetings. It will be available to both faculty and undergraduate student researchers.
