Fluorescence Correlation Spectrometer (FCS)
Fluorescence Correlation Spectrometer (FCS) is a diffusion-based single-molecule technique. In this technique, spontaneous fluorescence fluctuation is collected from very few molecules as they diffuse in and out of a tiny observation volume (~1 fL) over time. The fluorescence fluctuations are correlated to obtaining dynamic information contained in the fluctuation. By analyzing the correlation curve with suitable models, one can quantitatively measure diffusion coefficient, viscosity, chemical kinetics, size, etc.
Pulse Field Electrophoresis System Make: Bio-Rad Model: 1703672 CHEF Mapper XA Chiller System
PFGE resolves DNA by alternating the electrical field between spatially distinct pairs of electrodes. This technique results in the separation of DNA fragments of up to ~10 Mb by their reorientation and movement at different speeds through the pores of an agarose gel.
