Grant Update

Tuesday, Mar. 9, 2010

Shawn Khademi and Conor Roche sent in some pictures of their project progess. Thier Fall 2009 grant winning project was titled, “Use of Colloidal Nano-Gels for Enhancing Applications of Capillary Electrophoresis”  where they are working to assess whether use of nano-gels as the sieving medium will decrease the time-lag associated with loading the capillary apparatus and result in a greener chemical process for preparing the required medium.

Enjoy!
