As part of KAUST’s focus on advanced education, the Core Laboratories & Research Infrastructure provide specialized training to our users. These hands-on sessions, lectures, and workshops qualify users to independently operate our instru- ments. This Catalog provides information about training sessions available through each Core Laboratory.

Our facilities are impressive, but it is the people who run those facilities that foster a truly collaborative environment of excellence and innovation.

THE CORE The Core Laboratories & Research Infrastructure are a prominent feature of the KAUST interdisciplinary research ecosystem, with over 224 staff scientists, engineers, techni- cal specialists, and administrative staff. The organization is composed of eleven laboratories organized around one cen- tral mission: to provide state-of-the-art facilities, training, and services to KAUST students, faculty, researchers, collabora- tors, and our industrial partners. Furthermore, the laboratories support the intention of KAUST to provide an enduring model of advanced education and scientific research. These laboratories are strategically located throughout the academic campus, enabling our users to transition between labs in a matter of minutes, going from a research vessel to a next-generation sequencing facility or from an electron mi- croscope to a Virtual Reality environment.

Analytical Chemistry Core Laboratory INORGANICS The Inorganics analysis unit houses some of the most widely used pieces of equipment in analytical chem- istry. Our scientists are experienced with a variety of techniques to determine the elemental composition of variable materials including petroleum products, envi- ronmental samples, biological tissues, or artificial poly- mers. We also feature instruments to quantify nutrients and organic carbon in fresh and sea water. In addition, we house an array of thermal analysis instruments that are widely employed in material science to study physi- co-chemical properties under a controlled thermal envi- ronment.

Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA)

Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) monitors the mass of a sample as the func-tion of temperature. The instrument consists of a precision balance with a sam-ple pan located inside a furnace, where the sample is heated or cooled under a controlled temperature program in a defined atmosphere. The coupling with FT-IR is available as an advanced option, which simultaneously provides high-spec-tral-resolution >Page 1 Page 2-3 Page 4-5 Page 6-7 Page 8-9 Page 10-11 Page 12-13 Page 14-15 Page 16-17 Page 18-19 Page 20-21 Page 22-23 Page 24-25 Page 26-27 Page 28-29 Page 30-31 Page 32-33 Page 34-35 Page 36-37 Page 38-39 Page 40-41 Page 42-43 Page 44-45 Page 46-47 Page 48-49 Page 50-51 Page 52-53 Page 54-55 Page 56-57 Page 58-59 Page 60-61 Page 62-63 Page 64-65 Page 66-67 Page 68-69 Page 70-71 Page 72-73 Page 74-75 Page 76-77 Page 78-79 Page 80-81 Page 82-83 Page 84-85 Page 86-87 Page 88-89 Page 90-91 Page 92-93 Page 94-95 Page 96-97 Page 98-99 Page 100-101 Page 102-103 Page 104-105 Page 106-107 Page 108-109 Page 110-111 Page 112-113 Page 114-115 Page 116-117 Page 118-119 Page 120-121 Page 122-123 Page 124-125 Page 126-127 Page 128-129 Page 130-131 Page 132-133 Page 134-135 Page 136-137 Page 138-139 Page 140-141 Page 142-143 Page 144-145 Page 146-147 Page 148-149 Page 150-151 Page 152-153 Page 154-155 Page 156-157 Page 158-159 Page 160-161 Page 162-163 Page 164-165 Page 166-167 Page 168-169 Page 170-171 Page 172-173 Page 174-175 Page 176-177 Page 178-179 Page 180-181 Page 182-183 Page 184-185 Page 186-187 Page 188-189 Page 190-191 Page 192-193 Page 194-195 Page 196-197 Page 198-199 Page 200-201 Page 202-203 Page 204-205 Page 206-207 Page 208-209 Page 210-211 Page 212-213 Page 214-215 Page 216-217 Page 218-219 Page 220-221 Page 222-223 Page 224-225 Page 226-227 Page 228-229 Page 230-231 Page 232-233 Page 234-235 Page 236-237 Page 238-239 Page 240-241 Page 242-243 Page 244-245 Page 246-247 Page 248-249 Page 250-251 Page 252-253 Page 254-255 Page 256-257 Page 258-259 Page 260-261 Page 262-263 Page 264-265 Page 266-267 Page 268-269 Page 270-271 Page 272-273 Page 274-275 Page 276-277 Page 278-279 Page 280-281 Page 282-283 Page 284-285 Page 286-287 Page 288-289 Page 290-291 Page 292-293 Page 294-295 Page 296-297 Page 298-299 Page 300-301 Page 302-303 Page 304-305 Page 306-307 Page 308-309 Page 310-311 Page 312-313 Page 314-315 Page 316-317 Page 318-319 Page 320-321 Page 322-323 Page 324-325 Page 326-327 Page 328-329 Page 330-331 Page 332-333 Page 334-335 Page 336-337 Page 338
