NMR Spectrometer Core Lab
The NMR Lab operates three Bruker NMR spectrometers (500, 500 and 300 MHz) and one Bruker EPR spectrometer. The new 500 instrument (2016) is equipped with a cold probe which provides 4-5 times increase in sensitivity. We are able to perform almost all NMR experiments available at the market to provide detailed information on molecular structure, conformations and dynamics. The variable temperature experiments are available. The EPR instrument can operate at low temperatures down to 4K.
The NMR Lab Manager (Dr. Alex Blumenfeld) is responsible for the every-day general maintenance of all instruments, troubleshooting, teaching new users, helping users with spectral interpretation and advising for best experimental strategies.
