Characterization of mineralized tissues, natural or synthetic, is a challenging task, since these materials are comprised of organic and mineral constituents, each with strikingly different physical and chemical properties. The function of the Forsyth Mineralized Tissue Analysis (MTA) Core is to provide a comprehensive structural, physical, and chemical analysis of wild type, mutant and engineered mineralized tissues, including teeth (enamel, dentin, cementum), cartilage and bone. The strengths of the MTA Core include a unique combination of specialized instrumentation, techniques, and expertise based on more than 30 years of experience in this field.

Core facility that provides the following services: Microscope access service, Microscope training service. Confocal and multiphoton are modern fluorescence techniques in microscopy for generating optical sections from live or fixed biological specimens. In general, both techniques employ a point scanning and point detecting design. The confocal microscope achieves point detection by using a confocal pinhole to block off out-of-focus emission from the specimen. The multiphoton microscope, on the other hand, generates intrinsic point emission directly from the in-focus spot, thereby eliminating the need for a confocal pinhole. Subsequent scanning of the entire field of view results in an optical section. Computer reconstruction of serial optical sections, collected at consecutive axial (z) positions, can reveal the spatial localization of cells and tissues (sometime subcellular molecules) in 3D. The ability to see biochemical processes in live cells, in real time, sheds light on the vastly complex molecular world of cells and may allow IDI scientists to identify new targets for drugs that will treat exposure to dangerous toxins and bacteria as well as fight a wide variety of diseases.

The Partners Biorepository for Medical Discovery (PBMD), operated by the Partners HealthCare Center for Personalized Genetic Medicine, aims to foster collaborations among investigators, physicians and patients seen at Partners HealthCare institutions. This Partners-wide project is at the forefront of developing the tools needed to expedite the discovery and introduction of new ways to fight disease. As we advance the age of personalized medicine, it is critical that physicians and scientists work with large numbers of patients to advance the delivery of healthcare. The Biorepository provides an opportunity for patients to interact with investigative studies ? safely, securely and privately ? in ways that could have an enormous benefit for us all. The Biorepository continues in a development phase, and is actively working with a number of groups at BWH and MGH who are consenting patients for clinical and translational research studies. Samples are maintained in an institution-wide repository which is a growing resource available to Partners investigators and research groups.
