CRIF:MU Cryprobe Upgrade of a NMR Spectrometer

在化学研究仪器和设施：多用户计划（CRIF：MU）的支持下，特拉华州大学的化学和生物化学系将获得一个冷冻探针，该探针将提高特拉华州大学和附近机构的核磁共振（NMR）光谱的生产率和实用性。Cyroprobe的高灵敏度将有助于有机合成、生物材料工程、高分子科学、催化、肽/蛋白质化学和生物无机化学等不同研究领域的进展。核磁共振（NMR）光谱是化学家分析溶液中混合物的最广泛使用的工具。 它用于识别未知物质，并提供有关分子中原子排列和连接性的信息，即它们的结构。 获得动力学信息，提供对分子运动的洞察。这核磁共振将加强许多特拉华州计划，促进教学和学习的本科生和高中生。 它将协助来自其他邻近校园的用户的研究活动，包括林肯大学，特拉华州技术和社区学院，霍顿学院，它将被实验室的学生在威尔明顿朋友学校使用。

With support from the Chemistry Research Instrumentation and Facilities: Multiuser program (CRIF:MU), the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at the University of Delaware will acquire a cryoprobe that will enhance the productivity and utility of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy at the University of Delaware and nearby institutions. The enhanced sensitivity of the cyroprobe will assist the progress in the diverse research areas of organic synthesis, biomaterials engineering, polymer science, catalysis, peptide/protein chemistry, and bioinorganic chemistry.Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is the most broadly used tool available to chemists for the analysis of mixtures in solution. It is used to identify unknown substances and to provide information on the arrangement and connectivity of atoms in molecules i.e. their structures. Dynamical information is obtained providing insight on the motions of molecules. This NMR will enhance many Delaware programs that promote teaching and learning of undergraduates and high school students. It will assist the research activities of users from other neighboring campuses including Lincoln University, Delaware Technical and Community College, Houghton College and it will be used by laboratory students at Wilmington Friends School.
