Tissue Culture Facility
The MBB Tissue Culture facility is a CL2 facility, allowing labs to culture mammalian & insect cells classified at biohazard levels 1 and 2. The anteroom, leading to the Tissue Culture Facility, houses a liquid nitrogen storage dewar for long term cell storage and a computer log used for billing. Please note that this Facility is user pay.
Technical Support
The MBB Tissue Culture Facility is managed by Dr. David Vocadlo (dvocadlo@sfu.ca) and the MBB Manager, Laboratory Operations. Please contact the Manager (mbblabop@sfu.ca) for access to the Facility and training. Users will have to list the Facility in their Biosafety Permits, a copy of which must be posted in the Facility.
Fees
Access to the entire facility -- $500 per year for SFU users. This includes use of incubators, microscope, and BSCs (up to the first 25 hours). After the first 25 hours of use, additional BSC use will be charged at $20 per hour. Use of the LN2 storage dewar -- $100 per year.
