Proteomics & Metabolomics Core
This Core consists of expert staff using a large selection of technically diverse instrumentation composed of the most advanced technologies available in their respective fields of proteomics, metabolomics and quantitative immunoassays. These technologies are dedicated to the identification and quantitative analysis of analytes from biological matrices. Analytes includes proteins, peptides, small molecule and lipid metabolites.
We operate as a consortium of affiliated labs under the Advanced Clinical Biosystems Research Institute that can lend their expertise in a broad range of subspecialties. Our research and bioinformatic staff are highly trained and experienced in a broad range of applications and have extensive collaborative experience to help advise on the best possible combinations of experimental design, sample preparation, instrumentation, methodology and bioinformatic approaches necessary to address the research questions of interest. Every project begins with a new project consultation and includes a detailed consultation to disclose the data generated.
Watch as our research scientists describe the vital services provided by the Proteomics & Metabolomics Core.
The Bioinformatics team is a group of passionate, highly skilled individuals who solve the problems that face today’s researchers in ’omics-driven healthcare. The team collaborates with researchers, clinicians and industry partners to deliver end-to-end research workflows for high-throughput data analysis, data visualization, data reporting and downstream biological insights.
Our comprehensive services include: new assay development, small molecule metabolomics, lipid metabolomics, discovery proteomics, targeted MS-based proteomics, quantitative immunoassays, and multi-omic assay and data integration.

Working With Us
We used MitoPlex to evaluate mitochondrial content in the C2C12 cell line before and after differentiation to muscle tubes, and in muscle tissue under basal conditions and in response to statin administration. MitoPlex provided a much clearer and comprehensive characterization of mitochondrial protein content than we had previously achieved with western blot using Abcam’s 5-antibody cocktail. MitoPlex also provided an excellent characterization of the mitochondrial composition in the two main types of skeletal muscle fibers and revealed the impressive changes after statin administration. We are enthusiastic about the sensitivity and comprehensiveness of the MitoPlex assay. Combined with metabolomics (also available through the Core) and Seahorse respirometry, we are able to develop a detailed characterization of energy metabolism in cells and tissues."
