[ Visit Site ] The Biomacromolecules Core (BMMC) at Georgia State University provides networked, state-of-the-art facilities for local firms and scientists focusing on fermentation and protein/DNA separation and characterization.

Protein/DNA Facility: Provides access and a smooth transition from the mass production of viable cells to the quantitative production, purification, and on-site quality control of the desired biotech products. The facility also provides sequencing and synthesis of DNA/proteins, mass spectrometer analysis, and amino acid analysis.

Separation Facility: Provides for the separation and characterization of biomacromolecules using state-of-the-art equipment such as the HPLC systems (combined with laser-fluorescence detectors and the capacity to separate nanogram quantities), capillary electrophoresis, calorimeters, spectrometers, robotic workstations, and a computer-controlled analytical ultracentrifuge.

Fermentation Facility: Augments and extends the pilot fermentation installation and combines a series of small-scale fermenters with assorted accessories to assess pilot production of engineered proteins.

NMR Facility: Operational for approximately six years and experiencing significant use by local firms such as Solvay Pharmaceuticals, CytRx Corporation, and Oread Incorporated. Vistakon has recently made extensive use of the site.
