With this award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program, the Department of Chemistry at the University of California in Irvine will acquire a Circular Dichroism Spectrometer. This equipment will enhance research in a number of areas including a) studies on novel polymers, co-polymers, block polymers and ionomers; b) engineering of natural products via tryptophan dimerization; c) characterization of novel protein systems; d) development of efficient chemical syntheses of complex molecules of biomedical importance; e) structure determination of acetonide compounds; and f) chemical models of protein beta-sheet interactions. Circular dichroism spectroscopy is an extremely useful tool in modern analytical chemistry. It provides a very reliable and sensitive method for assigning absolute molecular configurations. The results from these studies will have an impact in a number of areas including materials chemistry and biochemistry.

凭借化学研究仪器和设施（CRIF）计划的这一奖项，位于欧文的加州大学化学系将获得一台圆二色光谱仪。这一设备将加强若干领域的研究，包括：a）新型聚合物、共聚物、嵌段聚合物和离聚物的研究; B）通过色氨酸二聚作用改造天然产物; c）新型蛋白质系统的特性鉴定; d）开发具有生物医学重要性的复杂分子的有效化学合成; e）丙酮化合物的结构测定;和f）蛋白质β-折叠相互作用的化学模型。 圆二色谱是现代分析化学中一种非常有用的工具。 它提供了一个非常可靠和灵敏的方法来指定绝对分子构型。 这些研究的结果将在许多领域产生影响，包括材料化学和生物化学。
