Platform technologies for gene expression and gene silencing

  • High quality high titre lentivirus, AAV, and retrovirus for in vitro and pre-clinical in vivo models
  • Capabilities to work in custom viral models
  • Pre validated vectors for overexpression, shRNAi or CRISPR delivery
  • Free GFP-encoding lentivirus aliquot(s) for new users to run lentivirus experimental test prior to any orders (try before you buy)

High throughput Functional Genomics screening

  • Dharmacon human library for whole genome/cherry picked CRISPR assays
  • Semi-automated assay design, screen and analysis
  • Training and use of FGSA equipment

FGSA has a wide range of equipment to build research capabilities and expertise in automated high throughput assays

  • EL406 Biotek plate reader with magnetic plate holder
  • Nucleofector 4D with plate shuttle
  • PC2 Biosafety cabinet and CO2 Incubator
  • Janus G3 integrator enclosed with a laminar flow

The equipment listed, along with complementary equipment unlisted allows researchers to fully embed themselves into FGSA from experimental start to finish. This reduces the cost for large screens.  

For testing of mammalian cell lines for replication competent virus associated with prior genetic modification.

Testing of cell lines will be performed to facilitate research activities at the Adelaide University exclusively.

Testing is done in accordance with the Office of the Gene Technology Regulator’s requirements as authorised under licence DNIR-681.
