The laboratory course in instrumental analysis in the contemporary chemistry curriculum suffers from a tension between the teaching of the functional details of instruments versus the overall process of chemical analysis. Analytical chemistry as practiced in industry and elsewhere requires an understanding of the overall process. This project addresses that need by the incorporation of an analytical method development project into the laboratory. Students choose one inorganic (mineral) and organic (i.e. vitamin) component of a processed food product such as infant milk formula or fortified cereal to analyze. They research analytical methods in the chemical literature, exercise critical evaluation in choosing methods, and develop independent thinking as the analyses are carried out. The High Performance Liquid Chromatograph acquired through this project is crucial to the success of many of the organic analyses that students encounter in the exercises. The institution contributed to the project in an amount equal to the NSF funds.

当代化学课程中的仪器分析实验课程在仪器功能细节的教学与化学分析的整个过程之间存在着紧张关系。 工业和其他地方实践的分析化学需要了解整个过程。 该项目通过将分析方法开发项目纳入实验室来满足这一需求。 学生选择婴儿配方奶粉或强化谷物等加工食品中的一种无机（矿物质）和有机（即维生素）成分进行分析。 他们研究化学文献中的分析方法，在选择方法时进行批判性评估，并在分析过程中发展独立思考。 通过该项目获得的高效液相色谱仪对于学生在练习中遇到的许多有机分析的成功至关重要。 该机构向该项目提供的捐款金额相当于美国国家科学基金会 (NSF) 的资金数额。
