This proposal requests funding for the purchase of a low-angle                  laser light-scattering (LALLS) photometer and a high performance                                                                                                liquid and size exclusion chromatography (HPLC-SEC) system.  This                                                                                               equipment is to be used to determine molecular-thermodynamic                    parameters and experimental ternary polymer-polymer-water phase                 diagrams required to develop a predictive model for a promising                                                                                                 new separation technique in biotechnology, i.e., two-phase                      aqueous polymer-polymer systems for selective extraction of                     biomolecules.                                                                                                                                                   The PIs are considered to be very well qualified to effectively                                                                                                 utilize the proposed equipment.
