DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The College of Chemistry, at the University of California-Berkeley, is seeking funds for the purchase of a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer. This instrument will be housed in the Mass Spectrometry facility and will be available to students and staff on a 24 hour, 7 days per week basis. The facility is in critical need of new state-of-the-art instrumentation in order to meet the growing demand for biomolecule and polymer analysis of its NIH funded researchers. Although the facility has been fortunate to secure good instrumentation in the past, many of the current mass spectrometers are becoming quite old and do not meet the needs for high molecular weight dendrimers, oligonucleotides, proteins and carbohydrates. The research of six faculties are listed below, each of who would benefit greatly from an in house, open access MALDI-TOF. Five of these researchers have established NIH funding, while one is the newest assistant professor in the department. These six groups, alone, include 81 postdoctoral associates, graduate and undergraduate students who will benefit directly from this equipment.

描述（由申请人提供）：加州大学伯克利分校化学学院正在寻求资金购买 MALDI-TOF 质谱仪。该仪器将安装在质谱设施内，每周 7 天、24 小时可供学生和教职员工使用。该设施迫切需要新的最先进的仪器，以满足 NIH 资助的研究人员对生物分子和聚合物分析不断增长的需求。尽管该设施过去很幸运地拥有良好的仪器，但当前的许多质谱仪已经变得相当陈旧，不能满足高分子量树枝状聚合物、寡核苷酸、蛋白质和碳水化合物的需求。下面列出了六个院系的研究，每个院系都将从内部开放的 MALDI-TOF 中受益匪浅。其中五名研究人员获得了美国国立卫生研究院的资助，其中一名是该系最新的助理教授。仅这六组就包括 81 名博士后、研究生和本科生，他们将直接受益于该设备。
