Thermos Scientific Orbitrap MS (Q Extractive) with Dionex Nano LC (Utimate 3000)<\/p>

Description:
A high-resolution mass spectrometer coupled with liquid chromatography system (Orbitrap LC-MS\/ LC-QTOF-MS) capable of collecting high quality and tandem mass spectra will be acquired for identifying, quantifying, and characterising metabolites and proteomes in bacteria and microalgae. This will allow different comparative metabolomics and proteomic studies for a detailed analysis of the production of secondary metabolites which may alter cellular functions. The instrument will also be used to quantify the compositions of chemical residues, organic pollutants, and microplastics in environmental samples collected from coastal wetland habitats. It will be used in tandem with
our existing ICP-MS, UPLC, LC-MS, GC-MS, GC-FID\/ECD, AAS, NMR spectrometer, UV\/VIS spectrometer and FTIR.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Flow Cytometer (Bio-Rad Z5 Cell Analyzer) Including Small Particle Detector Upgrade Kit<\/p>

Description:
A flow cytometer (FACS) with cell sorting function together with the required data analysis software (e.g. FlowJo) will be acquired to perform single-cell analysis of microalgae and bacteria collected from coastal wetlands. The instrument will be used to study the cell physiology of microalgae and bacteria and the cellular mechanisms of microalgae associated with mangroves\/coastal wetlands in
various environmental conditions. The cell sorter function will be used in tandem with the Orbitrap LC-MS or LC-QTOF-MS in order to conduct single-cell metabolomic analysis.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
