The São Carlos Institute of Physics at the University of São Paulo (IFSC/USP) has a state-of-the-art research infrastructure widely recognised nationally. The institute's multi-user centre offers extensive, cutting-edge equipment, such as Cryo-TEM, Aquilos 2 cryo-FIB SEM, Confocal Raman Microscope, Confocal fluorescence microscope, Solid-State NMR, etc. Additionally, the Group of Biophysics and Structural Biology "Sergio Mascarenhas" is well-equipped with advanced instrumentation for producing and characterising biomolecules. We welcome novel collaborative opportunities to expand our research endeavours further.
Our laboratory is well-equipped to go all the way from DNA cloning to heterologous protein expression and purification. The infrastructure includes Thermal Cyclers, Electrophoresis System, Gel Imaging Systems, incubators, Ultra-Low Temperature Freezers, Floor Model and Benchtop Centrifuges, four FPLCs and one HPLC.
For biophysical applications, we have quite an extensive infrastructure facility available, including:
Circular Dichroism
Isothermal Titration Calorimetry
Differential Scanning Calorimetry
Fluorescence Spectroscopy
Dynamic Light Scattering
SEC-MALS
Multi-Mode Microplate Reader
Microscale Thermophoresis
Mass spectrometer
Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR)
Besides, we are in close access to Sirius, the new Brazilian synchrotron light source, which is the largest and most complex scientific infrastructure ever built in Brazil (https://lnls.cnpem.br/sirius-en/).
