In: Biology [Edit categories]

Answer:

There are unlimited answers to your question. Here I will name some.

1) Thermo-cycler and PCR. To amplify a small sample of DNA.

2) MALDI-TOF or Quad Ion Trap-TOF Mass spectrometer. This equipment can help determine, identify, and characterize the protein found in the unknown sample.

3) Flowcytometer. :) A super machine use to count, sort, identify amount of cells in the sample.

4) hemocytometer. Count cells, (without the sorting function)

5) Micro Array system. This piece of equipment can array a sample. Can be use in DNA micro array or other protein micro array. :) Identify protein that is present.

6) Genetic Analysis System. This piece of baby is use for sequencing genes.

7) High Powered Liquid Chromatography system / Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer. Identify chemical present in sample. Able to analyse mass sample, chemical complex chemical compound. and also identify chemical molecule in 3D. Similar function to all MS (depend on the analyzer and detector)
