Welcome!
ALERT ATTENTION ⚠️
In observance of a holiday, Agilent CrossLab/iLab Operations Software Support Help Desk will be closed during Canada & U.S. hours on Friday, July 4th, 2025. We will resume regular Canada & U.S. support hours on Monday, July 7th, 2025. EU and APAC Support will remain open during this time. For urgent matters, please add "Urgent" to the ticket/email subject or press "1" when prompted to escalate a call on the iLab Support phone, and we will prioritize those requests first.
The Proteomics and Molecular Analysis Platform specializes in identification and quantification of proteins in a wide variety of organisms, exploring the role of proteins in health and disease. Beyond proteins, the platform also provides services to quantify cellular metabolites, drugs and lipids. Our platform contains the latest instrumentation for a variety of LCMS-based applications coupled with customized bioinformatics and extensive expertise to assist researchers in interpreting their data.
Our platform provides a full proteomics and molecular analysis infrastructure with advanced instrumentation and workflows to support your research projects. This includes protein identification/quantification, lipid analysis, biomarker detection and quantitative bioanalytical assays. This includes:
1. Analytical sample preparation by our platform technicians
2. Analysis on state-of-the-art equipment
3. Extensive follow up for data interpretation and bioinformatics
The Proteomics and Molecular Analysis Platform accepts samples from the MUHC Research Institute, and from external users if capacity permits. In all cases, contact us before you send any sample.
To optimise an efficient completion of your project, we ask you to observe the following procedure:
1. Send us your inquiry
Fill out the service request form, providing as much information you can to help us understand your goals and expectations. After sending the form, a facility member will follow-up with you to coordinate sample acceptance or discuss project feasibility. Please send off your samples on the agreed-upon date and notify us of the delivery method.
2. Project begins
Once we receive your samples, they will be processed on the mass spectrometer within two weeks.
Please note that no analysis will be performed if the order is not approved.
3. Results delivery
A summary report will be provided, including the sample preparation, experimental procedure and instrument parameters. Detailed customized reports, data review sessions, exploratory analysis can be provided upon request.
For all inquiries, please complete an iLab services request form.
