Development of a Kingdon Trap Mass Spectrometer for High Performance Chemical and Biochemical Analysis

在主要研究仪器(MRI)计划的支持下，普渡大学的R.Graham Cooks教授将开发一种用于高性能化学和生化分析的最先进的金登陷阱质谱仪。该仪器代表了一种全新的高精度/高精度质量测量方法。此外，它的性能应该相当于傅里叶变换-离子回旋共振(FT-ICR)仪器，后者的价格要高得多。该项目将影响普渡大学一些研究生和博士后助理的教育，他们将直接致力于开发该仪器，或将参与其测试。还将提供一系列关于生物仪器的短期课程。

With support from the Major Research Instrumentation (MRI) Program, Prof. R. Graham Cooks of Purdue University will develop a state-of-the-art Kingdon trap mass spectrometer for high performance chemical and biochemical analysis. This instrument represents a fundamentally new approach to high accuracy/precision mass measurements. In addition, its performance should be equivalent to a Fourier Transform-Ion Cyclotron Resonance (FT-ICR) instrument, which is considerably more expensive. The project will impact the education of a number of graduate students and postdoctoral associates at Purdue, who will work directly to develop the instrument or will be involved in its testing. A set of short courses in biological instrumentation will also be offered.
