Glovebox - an anaerobic chamber used for enzyme purification and oxygen sensitive reactions
ICP-OES - used to determine ion content in enzyme and protein-nanoparticle bioconjugates
Gas Chromatography - used to quantify catalysis products such as ammonia
Potentiostat - used for electrochemical measurements (bio/bio-photo/electro catalysis, biosensors)
Tabletop NMR - used to analyze the products of chemical / electrochemical reactions
AKTA - used to purify various proteins and enzymes for many applications, mainly catalysis and sensing
UV-Vis spectrophotometer - used to quantify proteins and perform kinetic assays
Centrifuge - used to pellet bacteria and filter samples
PCR - used to verify successful transformation of plasmids
Platereader - provides a combined UV-Vis / fluorimeter for a 96-well plate. Used in kinetic assays, as well as DNA and protein quantification
Incubators - used to grow various bacteria such as E. coli and A. vinelandii
Chemical hood - provides an isolated environment for reactions that involve toxic fumes
Ozone cleaner - used to easily produce oxide layers on materials
Probe sonicator - used to lyse cells. This allows downstream purification of proteins
Lamps - different lamps at varying wavelengths are used to promote catalysis
Gases - we use gases for catalysis (ethylene, nitrogen, etc..) and oxygen-sensitive enzyme production (argon)
