Proteomics Core

Services and Costs

Service


Currently, the facility starts to offer limited service. The followings are the draft of services and charge. We anticipate implementing the full services in September 2004. In the future, we hope to expand the facility service through grant funding with the collaboration of faculty in LSU. Please contact to Dr. Chou for future information about the currently available service, sample preparation and scheduling, etc.
