作为澳大利亚海洋微生物生物毒素研究设施核心组成部分的耦合液相色谱质谱仪：本项目将建立一个澳大利亚海洋微生物生物毒素研究设施。所要求的核心仪器是液相色谱质谱仪，用于根据复杂的样品背景分析和量化超痕量微生物毒素。来自三所合作大学的海洋生态和化学不同领域的专家将合作，重点研究新型生物毒素和海洋天然产物。这项研究对于发展迅速应对新型毒素的出现和爆发的能力具有重要意义。该设施将促进与合作伙伴组织Cawthron研究所的合作，Cawthron研究所是世界领先的海洋生物毒素研究所。

A coupled liquid chromatography mass spectrometer as a core component of an Australian research facility for marine microbial biotoxins: This project will establish an Australian research facility for marine microbial biotoxins. The requested core instrument is a liquid chromatography mass spectrometer to analyse and quantify microbial toxins at ultra-trace quantities against complex sample backgrounds. Specialists in diverse areas of marine ecology and chemistry from three partner universities will team up to focus their research on novel biotoxins and marine natural products. This research is significant in developing a capability to swiftly respond to the emergence and outbreak of novel toxins. This facility will foster the collaboration with the partner organisation, the Cawthron Institute, a world leading research institute of marine biotoxins.
