Biosciences and Proteomics Technologies supports the level 7 research laboratories of building 4. This page provides information for users of the facilities and services.
 

For laboratory users

All staff, students and researchers using the Level 7 laboratories need to have watched the Escape from UTS video and read the following documents and web pages. Most importantly the Floor Manager must be informed when new people are coming into the research labs to ensure that they are inducted officially. 

  • See Safety & Wellbeing at UTS

Research space on the sixth and  floor laboratories is allocated by the Operations Manager in consultation with the Centre Director.

Space is allocated based on the Biosciences and Proteomics Techhnologies space and lab usage policy and the space allocation map.

Bench charges

A number of basic supplies and consumables are supplied openly in the laboratories. It is expected that lab users will pay a moderate fee for usage of the floor and provision of these basic consumables. These consumables include polished water, wash up consumables, gloves, paper towel, waste bags and bulk ethanol.

An additional level of charge includes access to a managed store. Currently this is charged out as a division of total cost evenly across users. It is most suited to heavy users of plastic wares for tissue culture and molecular work. Going forward a matrix type weighted estimate billing system will be used to encourage less heavy users and improve fairness.
 

Ordering for Level 7

Ordering at UTS is primarily done by an electronic ordering system called i-procurement. In most areas, researchers are expected to carry out orders on their own using this system. I-procurement can only be accessed by persons with a staff number, so in some cases, students would normally rely on their supervisor to order for them. Additional forms can be found by coordinating with Science Finance as their current policies. When using the forms, please fill out the forms as completely as you can. You will need to see your supervisor for details on account numbers.
 

Who to ask for help

The Biosciences Research Laboratory staff are allocated "capacity" area responsibilities for specialised equipment, and technologies.
Professional officers can provide expert advice in the use of technologies and methods available, and Technical officers can help you with basic inquiries and support.

Once inducted, contact the relevant person as per Safety & Wellbeing's contacts list.

Power failures and back up power

Centre management realise the high value of frozen stocks and we have gone to great lengths to ensure that virtually all cold storage and critical equipment is on reliable, backed up power supply. The following link is a power failure checklist (PDF, 10kB, 2 pages) used by technical and or security staff to ensure that critical items have power during and after any kind of power failure.

All -80’s are connected by remote alarm to Security and liquid Nitrogen dewers are topped up on a weekly schedule to ensure reliable cryostorage. 

Strict policies are in effect regarding the use of cold storage and tissue culturing facilities to support these stocks.

Acknowledgement of Country

UTS acknowledges the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation and the Boorooberongal People of the Dharug Nation upon whose ancestral lands our campuses now stand. We would also like to pay respect to the Elders both past and present, acknowledging them as the traditional custodians of knowledge for these lands.
