High throughput NMR

  • SamplePro Tube SJ L, Bruker BioSpin GmbH
  • SampleXpress sample changer, Bruker BioSpin GmbH
  • Refurbished AVANCE III 500 MHz NMR Console, Bruker BioSpin GmbH
  • Automatic preparation and measurement of liquid samples, from beverages to biological fluids
  • Metabolomics – overview of the bulk chemical composition (i.e., amino acids, organic acids, sugars) in liquid samples, from foods (beverages, vegetable oils, and food liquid extracts) to biological fluids (i.e., plasma and urine samples)
  • Quantification of lipoprotein subfractions from human plasma and serum
  • Structural analysis for the identification of unknown compounds in liquid samples
