Amino Acid Hydrolysis and Analysis System for Investigation of Site Directed Nucleation and Growth of Ceramic Films on Metallic Surfaces

Abstract

An amino acid hydrolysis and analysis system is requested from the Air Force Defense Research Science Program. The proposed instrumentation will further the current research effort funded by AFOSR, namely the "Site Directed Nucleation and Growth of Ceramic Films on Metallic Surfaces" by allowing for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of amino acids that composed the proteinaceous polymers found at the interface between calcite crystals deposited by oyster cells and the various metal substrates.
