Scripps Center for Metabolomics

The Center for Metabolomics and Mass Spectrometry provides routine analyses as well as specialty applications for Scripps Research and outside biotechnology communities with a wide variety of ESI and MALDI approaches as well as GC/MS. The Center has several instruments available, including MALDI TOF, ESI quads, ESI TOF, ESI QTOF and ESI ion traps. We analyze a wide variety of compounds including small molecules, peptides, proteins and oligonucleotides. We also have a unique online sample submission that streamlines the process.
