CITEPro
Chemicals In The Environment Profiler
Sample preparation
High-throughput assays
Chemical analysis
CITEPro is a platform for high-throughput sample preparation, the automated exposure of cell cultures and aquatic organisms, and the automated analysis of the effects and chemical concentrations for large numbers of chemicals and environmental samples. The platform increases the sample throughput of established bioanalytical, toxicological and analytical methods and is therefore suited for a wide range of applications including the spatial and temporal resolution of contamination with micropollutants in various environmental matrices from water, sediment and soil to biota and human biomonitoring.
CITEPro is managed by the Department Cell Toxicology at UFZ with support by Exposure Science and Ecotoxicology
CITEPro is comprised of 6 modules:
1. High-throughput cell-based bioassays | 2. Ecotoxicity assays and imaging | 3. High-throughput chemoassays |
4. Sample preparation & fractionation for EDA | 5. Exposure assessment in bioassays | 6. Target and non-target LC-and GC-HRMS screening in complex samples |
