Bruker BioSpin introduces a new 400MHz 5mm DCH CryoProbe, a new generation of CryoProbe, for its Avance 400 NMR spectrometers
Previously only available for higher field strength instruments, cryogenicallycooled probes improve the signal-to-noise ratio by 300% to 400% (compared to noncryogenically cooled probes) for high-resolution liquid applications.
The new 400MHz DCH CryoProbe with Z-gradient delivers over a ten-fold increase in throughput to a 400MHz NMR system.
The probe is optimised for carbon observation and also provides superior proton measurements.
It produces a 13C spectrum in only a few minutes, enabling the acquisition of up to 250 spectra per day.
"This new CryoProbe delivers a significant performance boost to the 400MHz system at a price that is significantly lower than that of a new system," commented Mark Chaykovsky, executive vice president of Bruker BioSpin.
"As the only company that consistently delivers reliable, robust cold probes we are delighted to add this lower field strength to our line of CryoProbes, which extends all the way up to 900MHz".
400 MHz instruments are the most widely used of all NMR systems today, in applications such as small molecules, natural products and organic chemistry.
