SERVICE FUNCTIONS AND INSTRUMENTATION

基础研究和服务职能由 一节。该组织的一项主要任务涉及工具性和 提供给化学实验室科学家的化学分析， 美国国立卫生研究院生物有机化学实验室 其他政府机构的人员。今年第一季度 在本年度报告所述期间，大约有30个较常见的要素和 在定量的基础上确定了五个官能团，使用 由内部人员进行超微、微米和半微米技术。 高级技术员退休后，决定 把这些分析外包出去。仪器分析包括：GC/MS 光谱分析、气-液色谱、红外、核磁 共振、紫外线和火焰光度测定法。提供协助。 对光谱的解释是应要求提供的。

Basic research and service functions are performed by members of the Section. A major mission of the organization involves the instrumental and chemical analyses provided to scientist of the Laboratory of Chemistry, Laboratory of Bioorganic Chemistry, NIH and to a limited extent to personnel of other government agencies. For the first quarter of this year's reporting period, approximately 30 of the more common elements and five functional groups were determined on a quantitative basis, using ultra-micro, micro and semi-micro techniques by in house personnel. Following retirement of the senior technician, the decision was made to contract out these analyses. Instrumental analyses include: GC/MS spectrometry, gas-liquid chromatography, infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance, ultraviolet and flame photometry. Assistance in the interpretation of spectra is rendered on request.
