Equipment Details:

    The Varian VNMRS-600 NMR is our top end instrument. There are two probes available. The default probe is a two channel broadband with full autotune. The high-band channel does 1H and 19F. The lowband channel will tune to any nuclei that falls between 31P and 15N. If you need to run a nuclei other than 1H, 19F, 13C, or 31P, see Joo-Ho Lee to have the needed nuclei added to your experiment list. The VT range for this probe is -80°C to 100°C. The other probe is a three channel probe set for 1H, 13C and 15N. As such, it is ideal for protein sample analysis with VT range is for this probe from -20°C to 80°C. Publication quality spectra, system is suitable for DOSY, COSY, NOESY, ROESY, HSQC, and HMBC.
