Research Facilities

Research facilities in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Windsor can be found on the departmental website. Dr. Marcus Drover has a nice list for synthetic chemists. Some of the instruments are suitable for the characterization of biomolecules. Below is a list of instruments available for our research program as a protein biochemistry lab.
