The UCLA Immunogenetics Center (UIC) provides comprehensive testing for organ and tissue transplantation. Transplant testing has a long history at UCLA. HLA typing was pioneered here in the 1960''''s. The development of the microcytoxicity test in 1964 marked the beginning of international testing and standardization of HLA typing. The UCLA Immunogenetics Center has retained its leadership position in HLA research, and in the development of accompanying diagnostic testing. In the intervening years, laboratory and scientific personnel, from the US and abroad, have learned HLA typing through courses and workshops at the UCLA Immunogenetics laboratory. The center provides immunogenetics and histocompatibility testing services to a wide range of physicians, patients, pharmaceutical companies and other medical facilities. The laboratory is a World Health Organization reference laboratory for HLA, and is licensed by the State of California, New York, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island, is CMS certified and accredited by the American Society for Histocompatibility and Immunogenetics.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVCE, documented September 6, 2016. The High-Throughput Clinical Proteomics (HTCP) core laboratory is a mass spectrometry core facility designed to profile large numbers of clinical samples for changes in protein content. We use small amounts (micrograms) of protein from samples such as urine, plasma, CSF, and cell lysates and incubate them with magnetic beads that bind different subsets of the total proteome. We then examine the different subsets of small proteins and peptides by high-resolution MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. We measure the amounts and intact masses of the proteins in the samples and determine which have the greatest statistical relevance in defining clinical groupings before moving to physically isolate those peptides/proteins and identify them. The method works best for peptides and small proteins below 25 kDa and is an excellent complement to gel-based methods such as DIGE.

The Clinical & Translational Research Laboratory (CTRL) offers a full range of cost-effective laboratory testing to support your research efforts. The laboratory performs routine chemistry tests (basic metabolic panel, comprehensive metabolic group, electrolyte panel, hepatic panel, lipid panel and individual tests), thyroid function tests, fertility tests, tumor marker tests, basic coagulation testing and routine urinalysis testing. These tests are performed in the CTRL lab; however, referral tests can be sent to the UCLA Clinical Laboratory or outside reference laboratories. New assays not on the test menu can be validated and performed to meet the needs of individual research investigators. The laboratory is California-licensed, CLIA-certified, and CAP-accredited. A copy of each certificate can be issued upon request. The lab is staffed by ten research scientists, two hospital laboratory technicians, and two clinical laboratory scientists. It occupies approximately 5,000 square feet of space located on the A-level of the Center for Health Sciences (CHS) building. The facility works with investigators both inside and outside the UCLA enterprise on a collaborative and fee-for-service basis.

We are an academic Core Facility that supports the applications of DNA Sequencing and Fragment Analysis of Microsatellites and AFLP''''s. Our Facility was founded in 2003 and expanded in 2005 with funds from NSF Instrumentation Development Grant (#0500993). In 2008 a generous gift from the Yale Provost allowed us to upgrade our Applied Biosystems Genetic Analyzer from a 48 to a 96-capillary. In 2010, with funds from NIH Equipment Grant (1S10RR025478-01) we upgraded additional equipment to ensure that we are a an efficient throughput Core. We are housed in the Yale Institute for Biospheric Studies Molecular Systematics and Conservation Genetics Center both under the Direction of Dr. Adalgisa Caccone. The presence of our Core within this setting enhances training within the MSCG Center by allowing students to obtain genetic information from large data sets in a time frame that is appropriate to their academic schedules, and to do so within the budget available for training. Our services are utilized by over 600 users from Yale, other academic institutions and private companies from across the United States and around the world. By promoting access to our equipment we enhance cost effectiveness, reducing idle time and avoid wasting consumables. This in turn allows us to reduce rates and have our services available to users that could otherwise not afford it. While our user base continues to expand our focus remains the same: to offer high quality services at prices affordable to small and medium sized laboratories.
