The Chemical Synthesis Core Facility (CSCF) focuses on design and multi step synthesis of small molecules and molecular probes. We assist biologists to access these probes to address important biological questions in their research.<\/p>\r\n\n Edit<\/a>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

The Chemical Synthesis Core Facility specializes in small-molecule synthesis. Our mission is to support projects from groups lacking chemical synthesis expertise or infrastructure, providing services ranging from consultation, design, synthesis and characterization of small-molecule tool compounds for a variety of biological applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Available infrastructure and instrumentation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Chemical Synthesis Core Facility is equipped with a state-of-the-art laboratory, fully equipped for efficient synthetic work. This includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
