Samples are typically dissolved in a deuterium-labelled solvent to form, a clear solution before being transferred to a thin, transparent glass NMR tube.  The sample is then placed into a very strong magnetic field whereby the nuclei of the atoms absorb and then re-emit electromagnetic radiation at a particular resonance frequency.  This information provides structural and electronic information which translates into an extremely powerful analytical technique.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy offers:

• Identification of molecular chemical environments and structures
• Physical and chemical properties at the atomic and molecular level
• Well resolved, highly sensitive, analytically tractable and highly predictable analysis.

Typical Applications

• Structural determination of molecules including biomacromolecules
• Determination of molecular motion and interaction profiles
• The study of proteins including enzyme active sites
• Compound identification
• Purity analysis
• Stability studies.

Typical Industries using NMR Spectroscopy:

• Pharmaceutical industry
• Agrochemical industry
• Chemical industry
• Polymer industry
• Medical device industry
• Nuclear industry
• Consumer health
• Packaging manufacturers
• Petrochemical and oil.
