Researchers from Triangle-based academic institutions and companies can contact the Director directly for using our equipment. We welcome researchers from other academic institutions and biotech companies. Core instrumentation include: surface plasmon resonance (SPR)-based and bio-layer interferometry (BLI)-based biosensors analytical ultracentrifuges a spectrofluorometer differential scanning and isothermal titration calorimeters, including two fully-automated ITCs ( Auto-ITC200 and PEAQ ITC-automated) a circular dichroism spectropolarimeter static and dynamic light scattering instruments a fluorescence microplate reader a nano-DSF (nano-differential scanning fluorimeter), and a microscale thermophoresis (MST) instrument.

It provides instrumentation and resources for biophysical characterization of biological macromolecules and their interactions with cognate ligands. The Macromolecular Interactions Facility (UNC folks fondly call it the Mac-In-Fac) is a core facility of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
