The picoSpin-45 Benchtop NMR Spectrometer is giving chemistry students access to critical hands-on NMR experience.
The spectrometer allows users to run an NMR analysis in any laboratory without the need for special environmental conditions.
The picoSpin-45 resolves proton chemical shifts with a resolution of 60 ppb or better and needs only 20 microliters of sample fluid to obtain a spectrum.
Its compact size and portability, weighing under 5 kg, as well as the fact that it has no environmental or facility requirements, makes it a desirable unit for lab researchers with limited benchtop space.
Because of these features, chemistry students have access to critical hands-on NMR experience in their academic curriculum.
“As a biochemistry teacher, I want my students to get practical experience on NMR spectroscopy. This instrument and its software seem to be very useful for both undergraduate and postgraduate students.
“With this instrument, students can now experience NMR hands-on in chemistry lab courses and in research projects,” said Dr. Sangita Roy, HOD, Department of BioChemistry, Oxford College of Science, India.
The picoSpin-45 Benchtop NMR Spectrometer is also suitable for routine analysis to determine chemical composition, for process control, or for detecting impurities in mixtures. Applications include reaction monitoring, polymer chemistry, forensics, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, process control and QA/QC.
