Acquisition of Large Molecule Mass Spectrometry for Biological and Chemical Biological Sciences

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

This award provides funds to aid in purchase of a hybrid quadruple time-of-flight massspectrometer with electrospray ionization (ESI-MS). The instrument will be used by 30 basic science faculty and by approximately two hundred graduate students and postdoctoral fellows for diverse research in neurobiology, biological sensors, and nanotechnology. The instrument will be located in the Mass Spectrometry Laboratory in the school of chemical sciences where is will be managed and maintained by dedicated technical staff. Students and postdoctoral associates who require instruments of this type in their research have the option of having professional staff run their samples, or of being trained to use the instrument and then running the samples themselves.
