Equipment list


Each start-up company has a secure, dedicated laboratory (labs differ in size) with chemical benches, gas, air and vacuum supply, emergency power outlets, deionized water and a hazardous material refrigerator. Some labs also include chemical fume hoods, biosafety cabinets and separate office space. Additionally, there are four shared laboratories in BiG: a wet/analytical lab, a prototyping lab/machine shop, a Class 10,000 clean room with a separate gowning area, and a media-prep room equipped with steam sterilizer.
