The Chemistry Research Facility offers analytical services, including both Mass Spectrometry (MS) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). These services are run by specialist instrument technicians able to support your research work through experimental design, optimisation, and data interpretation. In addition, the facility can prove training in the theory and application of these techniques.
Included in the service is access to state-of-the-art equipment including a Q-TOF HRMS, GCMS and 400 MHz NMR spectrometer all located within the department of chemistry, Britannia House. Applications for these instruments span from routine analysis, such as accurate mass measurements and structural characterisation, to more bespoke applications available on request.
For specific information about the instruments and capabilities of the facility, please see below. To enquire about our services and find out more about how we can help you, please feel free to get in touch.
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
NMR is an analytical technique that uses radiofrequencies to measure the properties of nuclei in a chemical sample. There are many applications for NMR, from characterising synthetic products to probing the physical properties of materials.
Mass Spectrometry (MS)
MS is an analytical technique that measures the mass to charge ratio of ions. This can be used to determine the mass of a compound, to investigate structural properties of a compound and many other applications.
