Research Facilities
The laboratories of the Departments of Biology and Chemistry are fully equipped
for modern research in cell and molecular biology and biochemistry. Major items include
peptide and oligonucleotide synthesizers and sequencers, amino acid analyzers, a
number of electron microscopes, image processing facilities, FT and CW superconducting
NMR spectrometers, mass spectrometers, stopped-flow spectrometers, unit mass and
high resolution GC/MS, spectro-fluorometers, high pressure analytical and separation
instrumental workstations, PCR reactors, laser laboratories with a versatile array
of lasers and accompanying equipment, controlled-temperature and animal rooms, research
support shops, radiobiochemical hot labs and multi-user DEC VAX computers for DNA/protein
structure/sequence analysis. SDSU is a member of the regional CRAY Supercomputer
Consortium and is the supercomputer gateway to the California State University
(CSU) System.
