The liquid scintillation counter purchased through this project is         making it possible to introduce the theory and techniques of                    scintillation counting into the undergraduate biochemistry curriculum.          The new machine is used to teach undergraduates how to count                    radioactive isotopes commonly found in industrial, medical, and                 academic laboratories.  The instrument will be used also to study the           transport of amino acids across biological membranes, to determine              amounts of protein synthesis, and to find the rate at which two strands         of DNA combining to form double stranded DNA interact.  This instrument         also will be used in a variety of undergraduaste biological and                 chemical research projects.                                                                                                                                          This project will better prepare biochemistry, chemistry, and              biology students for success as scientists and medical professionals,           and for their service to society.  The grantee institution is matching          the NSF award with an equal sum obtained from non-Federal sources.
