At the Department of Molecular Sciences we have two NMR spectrometers, four mass spectrometers, two X-ray diffractometers, one calorimeter, one scanning electron microscope, and several HPLC and GC equipments.
The Department of Molecular Sciences has two NMR spectrometers, both installed in 2012:
The instruments, within the Organic Chemistry and Natural Product Chemistry group, are used for example in metabolomics research, for structural analysis of biomolecules such as polysaccharides, peptides or secondary metabolites. Metabolomics studies involve analysis of biofluids or extracts by high-resolution solution state NMR as well as analysis of intact tissues by HR-MAS NMR.
The department of Molecular Sciences has three mass spectrometers, two of them installed end of 2011:
The instruments are used for research in the field of proteomics, organic chemistry and natural products chemistry. The QTOF instrument coupled to HPLC is also used in the field of metabolomics due to the high sensitivity and the excellent resolution and mass accuracy of the system.
