MRI: Acquisition of HPLC with Diode Array Detection for Pharmaceutical and Forensic Chemistry at the College of Charleston

该奖项来自主要研究仪器项目（MRI），来自查尔斯顿学院的Wendy C. Cory将获得一台带有UV/VIS二极管阵列检测器（HPLC-DAD）的高效液相色谱仪，用于制药和法医科学领域的研究。这些研究项目将由化学与生物化学系和生物学系的教师以及由这些教师指导的本科生进行。此外，其中一个项目将与查尔斯顿警察局法医服务实验室合作执行。HPLC-DAD系统将允许将物质混合物分离成单独的组分，通过分析这些物质与可见光和紫外线相互作用所提供的特征痕迹来促进它们的研究。这些研究在法医和其他分析研究中具有重要意义。为学生提供的培训将使他们为许多对社会重要的领域的工作做好准备，如分析和有机化学、生物学和犯罪调查。

With this award from the Major Research Instrumentation program (MRI), Wendy C. Cory from the College of Charleston will acquire a high performance liquid chromatograph with a UV/VIS Diode Array Detector (HPLC-DAD) to perform research in the areas of pharmaceutical and forensic science. The research projects will be carried out by faculty members in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry and the Department of Biology along with undergraduate students that are being mentored by these faculty members. In addition, one of the projects will be carried out in collaboration with the Forensic Services Laboratory of the Charleston Police Department.An HPLC-DAD system will allow separation of mixtures of substances into individual components to facilitate their study by analyzing the characteristic traces provided by the interaction of such substances with visible and ultraviolet light. These studies are of great importance in forensic and other analytical studies. Training provided to students will prepare them for jobs in many areas of importance to society such as analytical and organic chemistry, biology and crime investigations.
