Instrument Access

After the appropriate training, individuals may use any of the NMR Facility’s six spectrometers depending on the application. One spectrometer, the 400 wide bore, is available for walk-up use. Time is reserved on the other spectrometers either through a sign-up sheet posted every Friday morning, 360 MHz, 500 MHz and the V/A600 MHz spectrometers, or on a daily basis using a web-calendar, 400NB and B600, see links on this page to the left. Additional assistance with experiments, special request for NMR time, or requests for training may be directed to Marc ter Horst using the Training Request Form, linked to below.
