Equipment

The service is able to meet several needs in the animal, plant or microbial fields, including:
• Research and identification of viruses from all sources;
• Research and identification (Gram-positive or Gram-negative) and description of bacteria from all sources
• Research and identification of contaminants (eg mycoplasma) in clinical specimens or cell cultures
• Immunoelectromicroscopy with or without colloidal gold on a liquid sample (negative staining) or on cell sections (pre- or post-embedding techniques)
• Quality control of viral fractions of density gradients
• Cell morphology on thin sections
• Quantification of viruses (eg Retrovirus) using latex spheres of known concentration by negative staining.
• Quality control of biological products released to municipal sewage
• Research of Retrovirus in cells, identification and count of the proportion of infected cells (cell sections)
