Equipment

The laboratory uses devices based on various forms of detection, i.e.: radiometric, absorbance, fluorescence, luminescence, bioluminescence, including detection in AlphaScreen, AlphaLISA, FRET, TR-FRET technology. 

The Radioisotope and Functional Analysis Laboratory is equipped with: 

  • Radioisotopic research platform (scintillation counters, manual and automatic filtration devices) – a fundamental tool for radioisotopic methods used to study the affinity of drug candidates for biological targets and their impact on cellular processes. 
  • Automated cell imaging system – enabling multiparametric image analysis using high-content screening (HCS) technology. 
  • Surface Plasmon Resonance Microscopy (SPRM) system – allowing the determination of ligand-receptor binding affinity and kinetics, supporting preclinical drug discovery processes. 
  • Monolith Pico Red system – operating based on MicroScale Thermophoresis (MST) technology, facilitating the study of complex intermolecular interactions through direct analysis of interactions between two or more molecules.
