CBC NMR Facility

Overview of Services

The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) facility is part of the Research Support Services in the UArizona Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry. The facility is located on the first floor of the Chemistry Building (fully ADA accessible). This facility provides high-resolution NMR analysis of organic compounds, peptides, oligonucleotides, and other small biopolymers and proteins, using the latest technology and capabilities for elucidation of structure and conformation of complex molecules in solution. Four high-resolution spectrometers, Bruker DRX-600, NEO-500, DRX-500, and Avance III 400, equipped with SampleJet autosamplers are hosted in its 1,650 sq. ft lab space for liquid and solid-state NMR spectroscopic analysis of a broad range of nuclei. The instruments are available on a fee-for-service basis for assisted or unassisted use to all University of Arizona research groups and external users. Sample service and NMR data analysis by experienced NMR spectroscopists are available for client sample submission. License for NMR processing software is provided free of charge for users from University of Arizona or UA affiliated external users.
