While low-field NMR has extremely favourable accessibility and affordable characteristics, the most common question that we get asked about our family of benchtop NMR spectrometers is with respect to any trade-offs that come from moving to lower-field.

The Limit of Detection (LoD) and Limit of Quantification (LoQ) are analytical benchmarks that define the practical boundaries for identifying and measuring a specific analyte within a given matrix, under particular experimental conditions.

Magnets used to manufacture low-field and high-field NMR spectrometers are not perfect and the magnetic field that they generate is prone to drift for a variety of reasons. However, during an NMR experiment it is important to keep the magnetic field as stable as possible to prevent the signals from drifting. This is taken care of by the lock system.

In this blog, we describe the T2-filter experiment, including its description and application.

It is common to mention the frequency of an NMR instrument instead of its field. When someone says: I have in my laboratory a 100 MHz instrument, it means that a spectrometer where the protons precess with a frequency of 100 MHz (Lamour frequency) is available in the lab…

In this blog, we discuss why gradient-based 2D NMR experiments enhance both efficiency and data quality and become the preferred choice for many applications. 

In this blog, we introduce our value-added software module, Experiment Designer. A powerful tool which allows advanced NMR users to code NMR pulse sequences through an intuitive graphical interface.

Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer (DEPT) is a double resonance pulse program that transfers polarization from an excited nucleus to another – most commonly 1H → 13C. This results in a sensitivity enhancement relative to the standard decoupled 1D carbon spectra (13C), which benefits only from the small Nuclear Overhauser Effect (NOE) enhancements.

In this blog post we present our new optional qNMR automation software. A new easy-to-use software module to allow you to create and edit method to automate routine qNMR assays and allow technicians to collect data effortlessly in bringing benchtop NMR in QA/QC applications to the next level.

In this ever-evolving world where technology and science keep pushing into new territory, new inventions are being made and state-of-the-art validation methods are being developed. Over the last few decades, lithium-ion batteries have gained more and more traction in their uses, moving from general simple batteries used for powering your calculator or phone, to cars and trucks, and even airplanes (currently only the small ones). However, as simple as batteries may seem, a lot of work must be done behind to scenes to develop these subtle but priceless additions to our lives.
