DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this application is to acquire an Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectroscopy (ICP-MS) for the established Baylor College of Dentistry Biomaterials facility. The facility currently houses a range of materials testing machines for large and small specimens (Instron and Test Resources), machine tools for large and small specimen preparation, and for constructing unique devices, amplifiers (Vishay, Grass) and devices for strain gage and EMG studies, ultrasonic analysis equipment (Panametrics, HP), equipment for motion analysis (Optitrac), and a modern SEM. Numerous computer workstations are variably equipped with data acquisition software (HP Vee) and hardware (Data Translations), 3D reconstruction software (Analyze, RevWorks, CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks), FEM software (Algor, ANSYS), and a variety of data analysis software tools (Excel, Minitab, SPSS, Systat, Slidewrite, etc.). Currently the Department of Biomaterials has allocated space for the ICP-MS. We have obtained institutional support from the Associate Dean for Research and Advanced Education and the Department of Biomaterials Chairman. Five research groups have been identified that need the new equipment for a broad range of projects. The researchers span many age groups from young investigators to senior scientists. Most participants have current PHS grant support or have grants pending. They are looking forward to enhancing and extending their research with this equipment in the Biomaterials core facility. We do not have access to an ICP-MS instrument. Previous experiments were completed by collaborating with investigators in Japan. We have identified two laboratories in the Dallas area that have appropriate instruments, but they cannot analyze our samples (see correspondence).

描述(由申请人提供)：本申请的目的是为已建立的贝勒牙科生物材料学院设施获得电感耦合等离子体质谱(ICP-MS)。该设施目前拥有一系列用于大小样品的材料测试机器(Instron和测试资源)、大小样品准备和构建独特设备的机床、放大器(Vishay、Grass)和应变仪和肌电研究设备、超声波分析设备(Panametrics，HP)、运动分析设备(Optitrac)和现代扫描电子显微镜。许多计算机工作站不同地配备了数据采集软件(HP VEE)和硬件(Data Translations)、3D重建软件(Analyze、RevWorks、CAD软件(Autocad、SolidWorks)、有限元软件(Algor、Ansys)以及各种数据分析软件工具(Excel、Minitab、SPSS、Systat、SlideWriteTM等)。目前，生物材料系已为电感耦合等离子体质谱仪分配了空间。 我们得到了研究和高级教育副院长和生物材料系主任的机构支持。已经确定了五个研究小组，它们需要为广泛的项目提供新设备。研究人员涵盖了从年轻研究人员到资深科学家的许多年龄段。大多数参与者都有目前的小灵通补助金支持，或者还有未决的补助金。他们期待着在生物材料核心设施中利用这一设备加强和扩大他们的研究。 我们无法使用电感耦合等离子体质谱仪器。之前的实验是通过与日本的研究人员合作完成的。我们已经确定了达拉斯地区的两个实验室，它们拥有适当的仪器，但无法分析我们的样本(见通信)。
