Bruker AVANCE III 600 MHz NMR Spectrometer

(Service provided by the Department of Microbiology)

Bruker Avance III 600 MHz NMR Spectrometer is a high-resolution solution Nuclear Magnetic Resonance system equipped with a high sensitivity broad band inverse probe. Coupling with a SampleXpress autosampler and state-of-art TopSpin 3.1 software, the system offers fully automated sample loading and NMR data collection to maximize samples throughput. Over 300 1D, 2D and 3D NMR pulse programs are implemented with the system to allow wide range applications such as:

• Small molecule qualitative and quantitative analysis
• Structure determination of organic molecules and small peptides
• Small molecule sample or mixture purity determination
• Metabolomics studies on urine, serum, tissue and cell samples
• Ligand-observed NMR (WaterLogsy and STD-NMR) experiments for drug library screening and drug target identification and characterization
