Instrumental Analysis

Choose an instrument used in a line of research: ex. Gas-liquid Chromotography or GCMS probe

Find a main research article about a scientific instrument used in a current science research.

Find 4 other article to back up the main one.

5-10 pages (12 font size, times new roman, 1 inch margin) that integrates at least 5 primary literature articles. Utilize appropriate referencing, and write in the scientific writing style. (VERY concise, passive voice, third person, declarative sentences). The last part is to propose what the next steps in this line of research might be.

I primarily want you to focus on your writing style and synthesizing information from multiple references.

In the paper include,

1.)Summary of the primary research article using the instrument.

2.)critiques ( positive critiques, negative critiques, any improvements,etc)

3.) full proposal of a new research that can be done using the instrument.

• How this instrument will be used in this new line of research.

4.) A lay out of the process for the new research (as if the research was to be done within a 12 week span).

• Include a lay out of the plan, and what will be needed for the research

5.) conclusion: What this instrument means in the field of scientific research and how it can improve science.

Agilent (the largest instrument manufacturer in this area) uses a probe called Chromatoprobe, try googling it as a good starting point.
