Abstract:

Funds from this DEPSCoR project were used to purchase a PackardCanerra TopCount Microplate Scintillation Counter system including harvester, software and printer. The TopCount A99XX Series Microplate Scintillation Counter includes software to run the machine and additional software packages to analyze the data. The Microplate 496 Plate Sealer includes pacers to handle 96- and 24-well plates both 96- and 24-well plates. The GAST Vacuum pump has a maximum of 760 mm Hg. The printer is an FX-870 printer. The complete system is being used for investigating the binding of radiolabelled ligands to membrane-bound neurotransmitter receptors. Additionally, it is being used to study the effect of environmental toxicants on these receptors. It is being utilized by the staff of the multidisciplinary Center for Environmental Health Sciences, located administratively within the College of Veterinary Medicine, at Mississippi State University.
