The Plankton Ecology Area is located at Naples centre. The Area allows users to analyze and study phytoplankton and zooplankton, from receiving sea samples, to isolating and culturing the species of interest, to allow their physiological study, population and genetics.
The area is temporarily distributed, pending the completion of the renovation works of the west wing, in 7 rooms and 2 common areas distributed on 4 of the 5 floors of the East wing, as listed below according to the activities carried out:
Wet Lab - Ground floor room #T35
Maintenance of phytoplankton and zooplankton cultures: First floor room #148 and third floor WALK IN cell #365ter
Live zooplankton manipulations - First floor room #138
Live phytoplankton manipulations – First floor rooms #138 and #148 and Third floor room #364
Fixed Phyto- and ZooPlankton manipulations - Third floor rooms #325 and #326
GROWTH CHAMBERS for EXPERIMENTS: floor -1 (along the wall in front of the stairs) and third floor (hall #365)

Second floor EAST Wing
The Biochemistry and Cell Biology area is equipped with various instruments useful for the biochemical and functional characterization of proteins and small molecules, including the study of signal transduction in marine organisms. The available equipment includes homogenizers for cell destruction, chromatographic systems for the purification and characterization of proteins, spectrophotometers for enzymatic assays.

The Gene Perturbation platform is equipped with the necessary equipment for the transformation and culture of embryos of marine organisms.
The area is equipped with: a puller to prepare microinjection needles, an electroporator and three microinjection setups necessary for the transformation of zygotes.
Refrigerated incubators and a thermostatic chamber (walk-in) are also available, for the growth of embryos at the required temperature (typically 15, 18 and 20°C).
