New quality control of purified proteins service

In response to the observation made in the prestigious scientific journal Nature that "[t]here is growing alarm about results that cannot be reproduced" (Nature 2015, 17552), the Institut Pasteur has decided to set up a "quality control of purified proteins" service to enhance the quality of your protein samples and improve your results. This new turnkey service within the Proteins Pole of the Center for Innovation and Technological Research (Citech) offers rapid testing of the purity, integrity and solubility of your protein samples and solutions to optimize their quality. This new service has been fully operational and accessible to the entire campus since December 2016.

An information meeting to present the quality control of purified proteins service will be held on Tuesday January 17, 2017 in the Jules Bordet room of the Metchnikoff building from 10 to 11am. This meeting will be followed by an open discussion with users of the service from several Institut Pasteur research departments.
