Get the biggest bang for your buck with our fully furnished facilities
At NOC Innovations, our labs and equipment are state-of-the-art – and available for hire when you need them.
Here’s a summary of what we’ll share with you:
This facility contains a set of Class 2 analytical labs arranged specifically for molecular biology and microbiological culturing.
We keep our preparation lab amplicon-free, and it’s set up so you can perform DNA and RNA extractions of environmental samples.
We also have a general microbiology and molecular lab with a range of equipment, from safety cabinets to qPCR machines and a MiSeq desktop sequencer, as well as multiple water baths, incubators, fridges and freezers (including a -80°C freezer).
Our calibration lab is a temperature-controlled space that’s split into two parts: a small work area, and a larger space dedicated to calibration.
The latter comes with the equipment necessary for high-quality temperature, salinity and pressure calibrations. The former is a more flexible space where sensor construction, testing and data reviews are undertaken. Both areas have a sink with a supply of seawater in the calibration space.
Key equipment includes:
Our Rock Physics Laboratory (RPL) is designed for experimental studies concerning geophysical phenomena in marine sediments and rocks.
Research undertaken here aims to further our understanding of the fundamental interactions between sediment and rock properties and their elastic and electrical properties.
Key equipment includes:
Our cutting-edge testing facilities include pressure vessels and environmental chambers, and enable the testing of all types of marine autonomous vehicles.
Key equipment includes:
It also includes two hyperbaric pressure testing facilities and an immersion test tank.
