With this award from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities (CRIF) Program, the Department of Chemistry at Louisiana State University will upgrade a 400 MHz solid-state NMR Spectrometer. This equipment will enable researchers to carry out research in a number of areas: a) molecular interactions of pesticides, toxics with soil; b) characterization of novel polymer materials; c) characterization of organic sorbents in sediments; and d) studies on the structure of fibrils formed by protein self-assembly.Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is the most powerful tool available to chemists for the elucidation of the structure of molecules. It is used to identify unknown substances, to characterize specific arrangements of atoms within molecules, and to study the dynamics of interactions between molecules in solution. Access to state-of-the-art NMR spectrometers is essential to chemists who are carrying out frontier research. The results from these NMR studies will have an impact in environmental and materials chemistry and biotechnology.

利用化学研究仪器和设施（CRIF）计划的这一奖项，路易斯安那州立大学化学系将升级400 MHz固态NMR光谱仪。这一设备将使研究人员能够在若干领域进行研究：a）农药、有毒物质与土壤的分子相互作用; B）新聚合物材料的特性; c）沉积物中有机吸附剂的特性; d）研究蛋白质自组装形成的纤维结构。核磁共振光谱学是化学家用来阐明分子结构的最有力的工具。它用于识别未知物质，表征分子内原子的特定排列，并研究溶液中分子之间相互作用的动力学。对于从事前沿研究的化学家来说，使用最先进的NMR光谱仪是必不可少的。这些NMR研究的结果将对环境和材料化学以及生物技术产生影响。
