This award will support the acquisition of a Perkin Elmer Optima 2100 DV Cyclonic Inductively Coupled Plasma-Optical Emission Spectrometer (ICP-OES) and a Millipore Milli-Q Element water system to be housed in the Biogeochemistry Laboratory at Indiana State University (ISU). The acquisition of the ICP-OES will expand the existing analytical capabilities of ISU and will significantly increase research opportunities for both faculty and students at ISU and nearby colleges. Acquisition of the ICP-OES will complement existing instrumentation housed in the Department of Chemistry by reducing the demand for the ICP-MS so that it can be dedicated to trace element analyses.The instrumentation will be used for research across many scientific disciplines within the earth sciences, including low temperature geochemistry, paleoceanography, environmental geochemistry, dendrochemistry, geoarchaeology, and ecology. The instrument will also be the focus of an instrumental analysis undergraduate laboratory project and will be incorporated into many undergraduate and graduate level geology courses that have a research component, including environmental geochemistry, biogeochemistry, geochemistry, and research methods. Acquisition of the ICP-OES will foster hands-on student research experiences in the laboratory and classroom.

该合同将用于支持购买一台Perkin Elmer Optima 2100 DV气旋电感耦合等离子体-光学发射光谱仪（ICP-OES）和一台Millipore Milli-Q Element水系统，这些仪器将安装在印第安纳州州立大学（ISU）的生物地球化学实验室。 ICP-OES的收购将扩大ISU现有的分析能力，并将大大增加ISU和附近学院的教师和学生的研究机会。 购买ICP-OES将通过减少对ICP-MS的需求来补充化学系现有的仪器，以便它可以专用于痕量元素分析。仪器将用于地球科学中许多科学学科的研究，包括低温地球化学，古海洋学，环境地球化学，树木化学，地质考古学和生态学。 该仪器也将成为仪器分析本科实验室项目的重点，并将纳入许多本科生和研究生水平的地质学课程，其中包括环境地球化学，地球化学，地球化学和研究方法。 收购ICP-OES将促进学生在实验室和课堂上的实践研究经验。
