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.
