Technology platforms
The most modern technologies for marine research
EMBRC-ES has state-of-the-art technological platforms in its facilities to enable researchers to carry out a wide variety of analyses of organisms. We have equipment for molecular analysis and bioassays, as well as equipment for biochemical and structural analysis and remote sensing facilities. We have extensive microscopy equipment that allows users to carry out light and electron microscopy analyses.
Structural and chemical analysis: Possibilities for extraction procedures and standard chemical analysis (proximal). Spectrophotometers and Turner fluorimeter are available.
