Chemical Instrumentation

The department of chemistry operates a full compliment of analytical chemical instrumentation.  Our undergraduate students use these instruments in both in their laboratory experiences and to support their senior research projects.  This photo shows LSSU students working in our Class100 Clean-room analyzing samples on the Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometer (ICPMS)

.

All the images shown are from our lab, showing undergraduate students actively using modern chemical instrumentation for course work and/or research projects.
