The University of Wisconsin-Madison received a $496,719 Project Grant award from the United States Department of Agriculture National Institute of Food and Agriculture to acquire an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) system. The award, made under the agency's Equipment Grants Program (EGP), will allow the university to advance its research on food and health from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2023.
The EGP aims to increase access to shared-use specialized equipment and instruments for fundamental and applied research in the food and agricultural sciences at institutions of higher education. This particular award will support the acquisition of a UHPLC-MS/MS that university researchers can use to conduct analysis supporting various projects studying relationships between nutrition, food components and human health outcomes. The new instrumentation will enhance the institution's capabilities to perform advanced analytical testing as it works to develop knowledge and solutions benefiting agriculture and society.
