Prefixing a search term with a "+" denotes boolean "AND" operator.
Prefixing a search term with a "-" denotes boolean "AND NOT" operator.
Absence of a prefix is interpreted as "OR" operator.
Examples: ("Search term" => Logical interpretation)
"computing DNA" => "computing" OR "DNA"
"+computing +DNA" => "computing" AND "DNA"
"+computing -DNA" => "computing" AND NOT "DNA"
Wildcard "*" searches are also valid, but only at the end of a word.
"*" is interpreted as one or more characters.
Example:
"comput* +DNA" => "comput*" AND "DNA"
Phrases can be enclosed in double-quotes (")
Example:
""mass spec*" +proteomics" => "mass spec*" AND "proteomics"
All searches are case-insensitive.

Luminex assays are multiplexed bead based immunoassays using a minimal volume of sample. Luminex technology allows the profiling of up to 100 different proteins, peptides, or DNA molecules in a single microtiter well. Results have strong concordance to ELISA and mass spectrometry. Thousands of commercially validated kits are available for purchase through the core laboratory. A list of these assays can be requested. Shadyside, HCC
The Metabolic Core provides Instrument Services for analysis of 1) endogenous metabolic pathway intermediates or biomarkers from biological fluids, cell cultures, and tissues using Liquid Chromatography Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), 2) energy metabolism (cell bioenergetics) in “living” cells using a Seahorse® Analyzer, and 3) biomarkers/metabolites to quantitate pathway intermediates using HPLC with 3 detector options (ECD, UV-VIS, FLR).
