Welcome to Northwestern University's High
Throughput Analysis Laboratory (HTA)
The HTA Laboratory is a shared, open-access
resource established in 2004 on the Northwestern University campus. The
HTA provides academic, industrial, and private researchers with equipment
and expertise for the development and execution of high throughput biological
analysis and screening. The facility is fully equipped with
state-of-the-art liquid handling, plate detection and automated microbial
culture handling capabilities.
The High Throughput Analysis Facility routinely performs:
- Drug discovery screening
- Whole genome screening
- High content screening
- Biochemical assays (enzymatic, binding)
- Automated colony picking and arraying
- Synthetic Genetic Array (SGA) analysis
- Microbial library replication and rearraying
- HTP molecular biology protocols
- Large scale or complex liquid handling
- Hit picking and library reformatting
- Tube to plate reformatting
- Micro qPCR reactions in 384 well format
The facility also assists researchers in developing
novel
automated methods to increase assay and sample preparation throughput.
Please browse this site for a complete description of facility capabilities,
and feel free to contact HTA to discuss your project. Facility hours
by appointment only.
