The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $333,179 Project Grant through its Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) to the University of Montana to develop novel materials and approaches for liquid chromatography. Specifically, the research team led by Christopher P. Palmer and Orion Berryman is synthesizing and characterizing new chromatographic stationary phase materials that utilize halogen bonding as the interaction and retention mechanism. This research aims to expand the applications of halogen bonding liquid chromatography for the separation and analysis of pharmaceuticals, peptides, and proteins. The grant will provide education, training, and development opportunities for graduate and undergraduate students in this critical area of national need. The project is expected to be completed by July 31, 2026.
