The Core Synthesis and Analytical Services Facility (CSASF) at the Center for Protease Research (CPR) was established in April 2008 with funding from an NCRR-NIH-COBRE grant. The CSF is aimed towards assisting principal investigators in the COBRE program, by providing synthetic and analytical services. We are equipped with modern synthetic technologies and state-of-art instrumentation. We specialize in the synthesis of small molecules for biological applications. We also offer quantitative and qualitative analyses of substrates using HPLC and LC-MS.

We are currently in the process of setting up billing procedures for non-COBRE researchers. Dr. Ganesh Bala is the manager of the facility and is available to provides synthetic services, analytical services and scientific consultations.

If you are interested in visiting the facility or have questions about the assistance of CSASF for potential projects, please feel free to contact us.
