Purdue University will receive $345,209 from the National Science Foundation under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to develop electrochemical methods for detecting and quantifying single enzyme molecules. Professor Jeffrey E. Dick at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will advance techniques to characterize chemical reactions catalyzed by individual enzymes using tiny electrodes within volumes smaller than a single cell. This has the potential to offer...
This Project Grant award of $450,000 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports Purdue University's research to develop new electroanalytical tools for studying chemistry in microdroplets. The project aims to provide detailed insights into how chemical reactions are accelerated and how reactive species are generated at the interface of small liquid droplets suspended in gas or immiscible liquids. The new measurement methods will...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemistry, under CFDA Program 47.049 - Mathematical and Physical Sciences, provides $467,272 to support a collaborative research project between Kansas State University and Indiana University, Bloomington.
