Welcome to Texas A&M Core Facility Portal!

The AggieFab Nanofabrication Facility is a shared nano/micro fabrication facility, having over 5,000 square feet of class 100/1000 cleanroom space and more than 50 pieces of nano/micro fabrication and analysis equipment.

The emphasis of the The AgriGenomics Laboratory is on plant/seedling/seed nucleic acid extractions, plate-based fluorescence spectrophotometry, PCR-based simplex genotyping (KASP assays) and CNV analyses (CLA assays).

The BETA lab has a complete set of testing and analysis facilities for biomass, biofuels, bio-products and high value chemicals in a centralized laboratory that follows standardized, high-quality analysis of biomass properties and their conversion products.

The mission of the Integrated Metabolomics Analysis Core Facility is to provide the TAMU research community with cutting edge expertise and services for sensitive, precise, and accurate measurement of small molecules and metabolites using mass spectrometry based technologies.

The LSBI is designed to be a multi-user laboratory supporting major research initiatives. Available instrumentation is capable of probing structure, properties and interactions of and between synthetic and biologic substrates from the molecular scale to nanoscopic dimensions.

The Materials Development and Characterization Center focusses on the fabrication of metals, alloys, compounds and ceramic materials as well as the characterization of their structure, and mechanical, thermal, and magnetic properties.

The Microscopy and Imaging Center provides services and training in Transmission and Scanning Electron Microscopy and Light Microscopy imaging, sample preparation, image processing and analysis.

We offer conventional and molecular cytogenetic services for domestic and laboratory animals, and wild species. This includes species identification, karyotyping, analysis of genomic instability, analysis of sex chromosomes and fluorescence in situ hybridization.

The Electronics Shop provides design, construction, PCB fabrication and repair of electronic equipment. We also provide a parts store with 4000 parts and liquid nitrogen.

The Protein Chemistry Laboratory provides protein analytical services, hands on training workshops, and individual consultation. Services include mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis (MALDI and ESI), amino acid analysis, automated Edman sequencing and protein and peptide separations.

This core has two isotope ratio mass spectrometers capable of determining the stable isotope ratios of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen in a wide variety of organic and inorganic matrices to better understand the biogeochemistry of the earth-atmosphere-hydrosphere-biosphere system.

The X-ray diffraction laboratory's focus is to determine molecular structure from single-crystal samples and to perform high resolution X-ray powder diffraction. We are a full service facility, able to determine the three dimensional structure and provide diffraction analysis of solid materials.

A third-generation AvaaTech energy-dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (ED-XRF) core scanner is located in the Geosciences Lab (B140) at 1000 Discovery Drive. The scanner provides non-destructive elemental identification from the surface of sediment or rock core section halves.

We provide animal parentage verification, identification, coat color testing, horse ancestry testing and genetic diagnostics of inherited disorders and traits.

Rigor & Reproducibility Core core assists investigators with incorporating Rigor and Reproducibility into their research by performing rigorous statistical and bioinformatics analysis.

Protein Production Core Facility is dedicated to providing expression and purification services of functional proteins at a scale that meets the quantity and purity benchmarks for structural, biophysical, biochemical, and therapeutics studies.
