INSTITUTE FOR APPLIED NMR SPECTROSCOPY

The NMR Institute is described in the online graduate catalog.  The institute is directed by Dr. Klaus Woelk and Dr. Chariklia Sotiriou-Leventis.  Please send all inquiries to stchemnmr@mst.edu or contact DOC’s NMR staff scientist, Dr. Lingyu Chi via email to lcwqc@mst.edu. Posted “Standard Usage Fees” apply to service provided for non-corporate users (e.g., Missouri S&T units other than the Department of Chemistry, other universities, and governmental agencies) and the corporate rate is 2.5 times the listed standard usage fee. The rates are effective since the date posted.  For training or assisted use, the listed rates increase by $25/hr.  The NMR team has been monitoring NMR usage throughout SP21 to refine charging schedules and the new rates became effective on June 1, 2021.

  • For organic chemists 13C NMR forms the backbone of routine molecular analysis. Spinsolve Carbon has outstanding resolution and a high sensitivity that enables the power of proton-carbon NMR in a benchtop instrument. This spectrometer is the most flexible and cost effective way to get carbon-13 NMR in your laboratory.
