Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)
A purpose built unit, it houses magnet room, technical support office, data processing laboratory and sample preparation and handling laboratory.
Mass Spectrometry
The Mass Spectrometry facility provides analysis of novel synthesised compounds, large and small molecules covering a mass range of 50- 150,000Da, depending on the instrument employed.
X-Ray Crystallography
There are both single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction (SXD and PXRD) facilities available in the Department. Though these normally run samples for 海角论坛 based academics, they are also available for commercial hire.
CHN Analysis
The elemental analysis facility is equipped for the analysis of the carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen content of a wide range of solid materials, including polymers and organometallic compounds. Sample sizes of 10 milligrams are sufficient to obtain good-quality data in duplicate, which is our standard approach. Additional replicates can be provided if required.
Protein Synthesis
This instrument brings us the capability to synthesise peptide and small protein derivatives up to 100 amino acid residues in length. Fast and efficient coupling protocols, together with on-line monitoring and feedback enables the rapid synthesis of complex peptides in a fully automated fashion.
