Facilities
X-RAY LABORATORY
The X-ray Laboratory is one of the analytical facilities within the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of California, Santa Cruz. The laboratory currently offers X-ray diffraction studies of small molecule, single crystal samples.
NMR FACILITY
The NMR facility brings together an interdisciplinary group of researchers comprising of faculty from Chemistry, Biochemistry and Biology. Presently the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry NMR facility manages three high resolution NMR spectrometers.
CHEMICAL SCREENING CENTER
UCSC's Chemical Screening Center houses high-throughput screening(HTS) robotics that are used to search for biologically active compounds and siRNA targeted toward a variety of biological systems. Investigators can test up to 30,000 chemical compounds per day for biological function and/or usefulness in fighting diseases.
Mass Spectrometry
The mass spectrometry facility provides analytical support for the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and other academic departments at the University of California, Santa Cruz. The facility is to enhance the research, educational, and public service missions of the University.
