國立臺灣大學重點技術平台/NTU Consortia of Key Technologies

  To advance the University’s key instrument analysis techniques, research efforts, and international influence, the Office of Research and Development (ORD) has established the NTU Consortia of Key Technologies in the five domains of mass spectrometry, molecular imaging, electron microscopy, semiconductor processing and integrative biomedical science. The consortia are supported by an expert system consisting of professors, professional technical staff, as well as cutting-edge core facilities, and by the University's existing expensive instruments, to provide both basic analysis service and solutions to advanced problems. Besides basic analyses, the consortia also feature consulting and follow-up research services for highly challenging and cutting-edge research topics. The experts will first determine the difficulty level of questions and designate appropriate facilities in the consortia to help conduct research analysis based on the identified needs so that both the use of instruments and analytical precision can be maximized. With the consortia supported by experts, NTU is expected to elevate its research quality in relevant domains.

理學院 / College of Science

本校理學院設置貴重儀器中心,每以執行計畫年配合國科會的方式做部分資源挹注,將共用性較高之貴重儀器進行集中管理、維護與保養,最關鍵的是具專業能力的全時技術師,並於國科會網站,公開開放地提供各界線上預約委測與使用,以發揮儀器之最高使用價值及效率。自1995年起,中心由國科會所屬單位轉為本校之建置單位,現有「分析測量組」及「海洋探勘組」兩組。中心邀請各儀器學有專長之教授為儀器專家,督導儀器使用、技術諮詢,並聘僱訓練儀器技術人員與助理負責儀器設備之操作、維護及結果分析、協助相關研究工作之進行。

中心歷年來提供臺大及臺灣其他學術研究機構及業界值得信賴及正確的量測數據,服務領域涵蓋物理、化學、生命科學、電機工程、材料科學、地質科學及海洋科學等。以2023年為例,中心於國科會網站開放24項儀器的線上預約,服務量達7萬件,時數6.8萬小時。儀器技術人員協助使用者於國際學術期刊發表了超過300篇論文。

The Instrumentation Center was transformed from an NSTC (National Science and Technology Council) institution to a unit in College of Science on May 1, 1996, after approval by the Ministry of Education. Its running cost has been partially supported, on a project-based manner, by NSTC. The reservations of the service and machine time are opened to the public on the NSTC website (https://vir.nstc.gov.tw/) to ensure that these instruments are used efficiently by the academic as well as industrial users. Currently the Center consists of two divisions―"Analysis and Measurement" and "Marine Exploration".

The Center recruits experienced consultants to pursue excellent instrumental performance. Its trained technical staff are responsible for the instrumental operation and maintenance, as well as analyzing/interpreting results and assisting with related research tasks, including customized experimental design and state-of-the-art techniques. It also has an advisory board that formulates operational guidelines, reviews technical staff promotions, and facilitates cooperation with other units. It has provided services to numerous principal investigators, graduate students, undergraduates, and research fellows, benefiting NTU, domestic research institutes, and industries in the disciplines of physics, chemistry, life science, electrical engineering, materials science, and geology.

In the year of 2023, the Center performed a total of 70,000 service jobs in 68,000 working hours and made significant contribution to more than 300 peer-reviewed journal articles.

此跨域研究以蔡沛學老師實驗室繁殖研究主題為主軸,與臺大工學院化工系吳嘉文老師、游佳欣老師實驗室共同開發非傳統liposome-based之抗氧化奈米顆粒,以多孔性表面修飾後之奈米醫材,提高抗氧化藥物之包覆率與藥物乘載效能,更同時針對臨床使用、儲存便利之需求,研發凍乾回溶製程技術。為求抗氧化奈米醫材製成品質之穩定性,與臨床試驗前各項定量、定性監控測試,我們藉由化學系與台大高解析度質譜貴重儀器中心的合作與支持進行臨床試驗前藥物於體內器官釋放及生物利用性之研究。

相關研究成果發表於International Journal of Nanomedicine (IF 8.1, 14/278 in Pharmacology/Pharmacy) 2023, 18:4313-4327.

Under the substantial support (including support in research funds and key research equipment acquisition) by NTU Office of Research and Development, the College of Bioresources and Agriculture, and the Professional School of Veterinary Medicine, Prof. Pei-Shiue Tsai’s lab assembles a multidisciplinary research team including research teams from the department of chemistry, chemical engineering, biomedical engineering, medicine, and pharmacology and devote their effort on mitigating the deteriorating effects of chemotherapy/radiotherapy-induced infertility.

Through the effort, we used a non-traditional liposome-based approach and applied multiporous material to develop a novel high encapsulating efficiency, high specificity, high stability, and low cytotoxicity antioxidant nanoparticle to effectively rescue chemotherapy/radiotherapy-induced defects in spermatogenesis and testicular damages. To improve the convenience for clinical usage, we also aim to develop a lyophilized formulation of the antioxidant nanoparticle to improve shelf-storage time and convenience upon clinical usage. Furthermore, to ensure the safety and quality of the antioxidant nanoparticle, under the collaboration of the chemistry department and support from NTU Instrumental Center, we can further characterize the stability and compound distribution of the antioxidant nanoparticles before being tested at the clinics.

The research has been published in the International Journal of Nanomedicine (IF 8.1, 14/278 in Pharmacology/Pharmacy) 2023, 18:4313-4327.
