Disciplines such as pharmaceuticals, plant protection, mineral extraction, and conservation all need to separate, identify and quantify molecules. The method of choice for small molecules (< 500 amu) is gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A broad range of laboratories in WA are using GC-MS, but the equipment is fully utilised, outdated and limiting progress. This application seeks to purchase research grade GC-MS equipment with order-of-magnitude improvements in mass range, sample throughput, discrimination and data handling capacities. This equipment will transform capabilities and will enhance projects supporting the minerals and agricultural industries and enhance biodiversity conservation efforts.

制药、植物保护、矿物提取和保护等学科都需要分离、识别和量化分子。小分子(&lt；500amu)的选择方法是气相色谱和质谱仪(GC-MS)。西澳的许多实验室都在使用GC-MS，但这些设备已经得到充分利用，过时，限制了进展。该应用寻求购买在质量范围、样品吞吐量、鉴别度和数据处理能力方面有数量级改进的研究级GC-MS设备。这种设备将改变能力，并将加强支持矿产和农业的项目，并加强保护生物多样性的努力。
