A1B: MULTI-USER RESEARCH CORE FACILITIES- ANALYTICAL CORE LAB:ENVIRONMENTAL HLTH

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中利用 资源由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供。子项目和 调查员(PI)可能从NIH的另一个来源获得了主要资金， 并因此可以在其他清晰的条目中表示。列出的机构是 该中心不一定是调查人员的机构。 分析核心实验室(ACL)的目标是：(1)为三个试点项目(Arslan博士、Gao博士和Hossain博士)提供支持并促进其研究项目的建立；(2)提供全面的服务系统，以便为用户社区提供更好的服务；(3)为主要设备提供讲习班，包括LC/MS/MS、CE/MS/MS、LC-ICP/MS、拉曼显微镜系统、FT-IR以及其他常规仪器，每学期至少一次；(4)购置三台新仪器以及电脑和打印机，以满足使用者的需要；。(5)翻新两个实验室，以容纳新仪器，使实验室的运作更有效率，并为使用者提供更安全的环境；。(6)扩大分析用户委员会的角色，以最大限度地利用资源和建立稳固的成本回收制度，以改善分析用户委员会的服务。在目前的授权期内，ACL为RCMI计划以及其他计划中试点项目的主要调查人员提供了分析服务。该实验室也已用于化学仪器课程的教学。购买了两台新的仪器，包括UV-VIS-NIR光谱仪和带有自动进样器的高效液相色谱，以及UV和荧光检测器。新成立的分析用户委员会参与了这两个新工具的选择。此外，6台仪器，包括LC/MS/MS、两台UV-Vis光谱仪、AA光谱仪、FT-IR、气相色谱仪(GC)，在此批款期间进行了维修。还提供了两次关于使用四种仪器的培训课程，包括傅立叶变换红外光谱、高效液相色谱、荧光光谱仪和紫外可见光谱仪。已经实施了一个更简化的成本回收系统，产生了超过10,000美元的实验室使用费。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The objectives of the Analytical Core Laboratory (ACL) are (1) providing supports for three pilot projects (Drs. Arslan, Gao, and Hossain) and contributing to the establishment of their research projects; (2) providing a comprehensive service system in order to provide a better service to the user community; (3) offering workshops for major equipment including LC/MS/MS, CE/MS/MS, LC-ICP/MS, Raman microscope system, and FT-IR as well as other conventional instruments at least once each semester; (4) acquiring three new instruments as well as computers and printers to satisfy the needs of the user community; (5) renovating two ACL lab rooms for accommodating new instruments, making the operation of ACL more efficient, and providing a safer environment for the ACL users; (6) expanding the role of the Analytical Users Committee for improving the service of ACL by maximizing our resources and establishing a solid system for cost recovery. During the current grant period, ACL has provided analytical services to principal investigators of pilot projects in the RCMI program as well as those in other programs. This laboratory has also been used for teaching chemical instrumentation class. Two new instruments including UV-Vis-NIR spectrometer and HPLC with auto sampler and both UV and fluorescence detectors have been purchased. The newly established Analytical Users Committee has been involved in selecting these two new instruments. In addition, six instruments including LC/MS/MS, two UV-Vis spectrometers, AA spectrometer, FT-IR, gas chromatograph(GC) have been repaired during this grant period. Two training sessions for the use of four instruments including FT-IR, HPLC, spectrofluorometer and UV-Vis spectrometers have also been offered. A more simplified cost recovery system has been implemented for generating over $10,000 of lab usage fees.
