Asunto: equipments wanted!!

Dear Colleagues,

Together with two other researchers,I am just beginning my researcher line  in Chile, after a postdoc in USA.  Even when I have gotten a couple of grants from my government, none of them allows to expend money for equipments.
For this reason I am contacting you all.
I was wondering if any of you are willing to give away (donate)  those old and rusty equipments you have in your lab (the only consideration is they are still working, they do not need to be fully functional). I have talk to my university representatives, and they have agreed to  pay for all the shipping and handling cost necessary to bring them to Chile. If required we would hire a company to take care of everything. Our University will provide the required documentation to certify the donation.


The equipments we required are:

Stereo microscope  (2x, 4x) URGENT
Light Source for stereo microscope (Cold light or LED) URGENT!!!
fluorescence Microscope
HPLC
FPLC
ELISA reader
Centrifuge and rotors


Any other gadget might be useful too. Just ask!.

Thank you in advance,
