IQS-JEOL NMR PLATFORM

IQS-JEOL NMR Platform laboratory, created in 2024, arises from the collaboration agreement signed between JEOL as a leading company in the manufacture of scientific equipment and IQS as a university center. The acquisition of two new generation NMR machines by IQS promotes university research into the study of the technique and its application in industrial environments such as the field of chemistry, biochemistry and the medical-pharmaceutical a reas. The collaboration between the two entities allows the interrelationship between JEOL experts and IQS teaching and research staff.

Biotherapies Laboratory

The Biotehrapies Laboratory is specialized in the development of peptides and proteins, especially antibodies, with biomedical applications.

Thermal Analysis Laboratory

Laboratory in the field of chemical engineering focused on the thermal characterisation of chemical substances or mixtures. It covers activities related to the thermal safety of chemical processes, industrial safety, simulation and optimisation of chemical processes and the performance of thermal analysis and calorimetry.

Bioprocess Pilot Plant

Bioprocessing infrastructure and equipment for the development, optimisation, scale-up and manufacturing of test batches. Suitable for microorganisms cultures (bacteria, yeasts and fungi) in batch and fed-batch and in aerobic or anaerobic conditions. Class 1 organisms (non-pathogenic). Includes downstream operations for the first stages of bioproduct isolation.

Nanotechnology and Advanced Materials Unit

Unit comprising different laboratories for advanced research and technology transfer activities mainly related to polymeric materials, biomaterials, ceramic materials and graphene. It includes special areas for microscopes and image analysis, equipment for materials characterisation and laboratories for vascular engineering and biomaterials.

IQS-SCIEX Demo Lab

Laboratory arising from the collaboration between SCIEX and IQS to promote research in chemical analysis techniques based on high resolution mass spectrometry. This partnership makes the availability of powerful new generation equipment possible in a university environment where research promotes the study of the analytical techniques and their application in industrial environments such as chemistry, biopharma, biotechnology, and proteomics. The cooperation between both entities includes the joint work between SCIEX experts and IQS professors and researchers.
