Our High Field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) instruments are located on the Busch campus of Rutgers University-New Brunswick with state-of-the-art capabilities for both solution state and solid-state NMR, supported by two full time staff members.
Our high field spectrometers are ideal for the most complicated and challenging research in the areas of:
-
Bio-Solution: available at 800, 700, and 600 MHz, potential experiments include protein dynamics and structure elucidation and protein-ligand binding
-
Bio-Solids: on the 800 and 600 MHz spectrometers, fast magic-angle-spinning (MAS) probes allow for solution-like investigations of membrane proteins, aggregates, and large complexes
-
Materials: in addition to the 800 and 600 MHz NMRs, a dedicated 400 MHz instrument is available for work on solid materials such as concrete, polymers, catalysts, and batteries
Data can be processed at the spectrometers and retrieved via a dedicated FTP site. With all spectrometers running the same software version, it is easy to switch between them as the need arises. Please contact Dr. Seho Kim.
