Colloid Biology
Our Colloid biology lab is focused on molecular microbiology techniques including the isolation and characterization of bacteria, cell surface modifications, flow cytometry, particle size and charge measurements, microfluidics, fluorescent microscopy, and automated absorbance/fluorescence/luminescence essays. Modern molecular biological techniques include gene and genome sequencing, real-time qPCR, DNA fingerprinting (electrophoresis), DNA quantification, and quality check.
