Mass spectrometry facility for inorganic and organic analysis

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The aim of the proposal is to increase the ability for JCU researchers to access high-level mass spectrometry analysis for inorganic (Inductively-Coupled Plasma Mass Sepctrometry, ICP-MS) and organic (Gas-Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer, GC-MS and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography HPLC-MS) chemical analysis. The proposal is significant in that it will simultaneously improve the existing highly-productive capabilities in inorganic analysis, whilst providing, for the first time, organic chemical analysis capabilities. This equipment will improve the capacity to undertake more incisive analytical research in the areas of research strength at JCU, that is, in Earth Science, Biological, Chemical, Engineering and Medicine.
