The University of Maine offers numerous state-of-the-art analytical facilities through a wide range of faculty members and laboratories. These facilities support research from atomic scales to global scales, and provide students with access to instrumentation and field sites that cover the spectrum of needs. They also allow
students to transfer basic and applied research developments to the industrial sector and participate in joint university-industrial funded research projects.
Some of these facilities and resources include: |

An asset for students and researchers throughout the State and complements research being conducted using other vertebrates such as mice. The facility is located in Hitchner Hall and is outfitted with the Aquatic Habitats for Accelerated Bioresearch fish rearing system. |

Dry Etch, Thin Film Deposition, Wet Processing, Chemical Vapor Deposition, Photomask Generator, Photolithography, MEMS Testing Laboratory.
The MicroInstruments ad Systems Laboratory is a multi-disciplinary laboratory dedicated to providing custom, prototype, micro instruments. |

The University of Maine DNA Sequencing Facility provides Electrophoresis, DNA Sequencing, Editing, Fragment Analysis, and Primer Walking. Our Facilities include an ABI 3730 Capillary Sequencer and an ABI 377 Sequencer with XL Upgrades. |

UMaine's Electron Microscopy Laboratory (EML) offers the tools and technical expertise for research and training in microscopy with both light and electron microscopes. The lab operates three electron microscopes and the ancillary equipment needed for preparation of the specimens. |

Surface and Interface Processes, Surface Phase Transitions, Devices / Instrumentation Design.
Theoretical studies and model calculations are performed on a variety of systems to determine the mechanisms behind surface, interface, and thin film processes. |
