About CMSP

The Center for Metabolomics and Proteomics (CMSP) facility provides support to the life sciences research community at the University of Minnesota. The CMSP, a subunit of the Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Biophysics (BMBB), is based on the St. Paul campus. CMSP provides expertise, equipment, training, and support for analyzing all types of biological molecules - with a focus on proteomic and metabolomic applications. With years of experience serving the entire biological science area of the University, the CMSP staff has a wide range of expertise in analytical methods used to characterize a broad range of molecule types. In addition to large-scale discovery studies, proteins, metabolites or other molecules of interest can be validated by targeted mass spectrometry methods.
