High-Performance Liquid Chromatography in the Analytical andOrganic Laboratories

色谱分离方法在分析化学和合成化学中具有极其重要的意义。将被聘为化学家或生物化学家的学生经常发现，高效液相色谱（HPLC）的知识是就业的一个条件。理科生以前没有机会在他们的本科化学实验室中使用HPLC设备。这个项目的目的就是给学生提供这样的机会。计划是介绍实验，允许学生扩展使用最先进的液相色谱仪。专业预科学生，以及化学和生物专业的学生，都可以使用这些仪器。强大的分离技术的可用性使得有机化学课程中更全面地分析合成结果成为可能。这提高了它们的教学价值，拓宽了可以研究的系统范围。分析化学课程的学生学习HPLC分析的能力和局限性，并能够与其他方法进行比较。它们在分析方法和现代设备方面的经验正在大大扩展。分离是化学的一个主要领域，分离数据是监管和公共卫生决策的重要组成部分。采用项目中开发的材料可能会使学生对现代化学有更现实的认识，并为研究生培训或化学方面的工作做好更好的准备。那些继续教书的人可以更好地向学生传达化学对他们生活的影响。

Chromatographic separation methods are of enormous importance in analytical and synthetic chemistry. Students who will be employed as chemists or biochemists often find that knowledge of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a condition for employment. Science students have not previously had the opportunity to use HPLC equipment in their undergraduate chemistry labs. The objective of this project is to give students that opportunity. The plan is to introduce experiments that permit students extended use of state-of-the-art liquid chromatographs. Preprofessional students, as well as Chemistry and Biology majors, have access to these instruments. The availability of powerful separation techniques makes it possible to analyze more fully the results of syntheses in Organic Chemistry courses. This improves their pedagogical value and broadens the range of systems that can be studied. Students in Analytical Chemistry courses learn the capabilities and limitations of HPLC-based analyses and are able to compare HPLC methods with others. Their experience of analytical methodologies and modern equipment is being substantially extended. Separations are a major area of chemistry, and separations data are important components of regulatory and public health decisions. Adoption of the materials developed in the project may result in students who have a more realistic idea of modern chemistry and who are better prepared for graduate training or available jobs in chemistry. Those who go on to teach could be better able to convey to their students the impact of chemistry on their lives.
