Summary
The Varian VXR-300 and 400 are used for routine 1D 1H/13C characterization experiments. The VXR-400 has a tunable X channel and can be used for 31P, 11B and 13C experiments. The VXR-300 is only used for 1D 1H/13C, and it is also available as a walk-on instrument 24/7. These probes do not feature variable temperature capabilities and they are only available for 1D experiments.
The instruments are located in 1702 Gilman Hall. Enquiries should be directed to Dr. Sarah Cady or Dr. Shu Xu. Phone 515-294-5975 (Hach office/NMR lab), 515-294-4057 (Gilman NMR lab).
