The Biochemistry Core Laboratory provides investigators with a wide range of laboratory support and access to a well-equipped research laboratory suite. The GCRC laboratory personnel assist in coordinating aspects of obtaining research samples in an efficient, accurate manner as well as aiding investigators in fulfilling unique laboratory requirements dictated by their protocol*. Carefully maintained quality control systems are in place for each assay or analysis. In addition to the methods and technologies currently in place, new techniques and innovative methods may be incorporated by the GCRC Biochemistry Laboratory to meet the specific needs of your protocol.
The Biochemistry Core lab manager can also assist investigators with special research pricing for ancillary tests that are to be done by the FAHC laboratory. These reduced prices are available both to the CRC and any investigator who has a 960 account. The lab manager can aid an investigator in setting up a 960 account.

*In the event that an assay which is not available here is needed for an investigator's protocol, arrangements may be made with another GCRC offering that particular analysis. Through detailed discussions between the investigator and the Biochemistry Core Lab Manager, uniquely designed protocol sheets are generated for each protocol detailing specimen acquisition, processing/extraction and appropriate storage conditions.
