  *   September 2017 time requests: This is a reminder that August 19th 4pm CST is the deadline to have spectrometer time reserved for you for September 2017; please contact Lai Bergeman<mailto:lai.bergeman at wisc.edu> by e-mail or call 608-262-3173. You may schedule time yourself, as soon as the calendar is open by end-of-day on August 21st, by logging into Sundial and following the requests process.


  *   Vosges and Jaulan are not operational.



  *   Devon (500MHz II) – Starting from September 1st 2017, default probe on Devon will be 4mm CP-MAS (solid probe). If user would like to use cryoprobe, request has to be submitted on/or before the 19th of the previous month in Sundial for consideration or use Kerry (500MHz I).

New User/Collaborator Information:
Please note that if you would like to collaborate with our facility you will need to submit an abstract providing some detail to Dave Aceti<mailto:djaceti at wisc.edu>, our coordinator, who will bring it up for review at our weekly staff meeting for approval. Please visit the NMRFAM website<http://www.nmrfam.wisc.edu/become-a-collaborator.htm> for more information.

Other NMRFAM capabilities:
Solid state probes at NMRFAM:
·         3.2mmEfree CPMAS, 4mm CPMAS and HRMAS probes - 500 MHz (Devon)
·         3.2mm Efree CPMAS and static BioProbe (PISEMA experiments) -  600 MHz III (Vosges)
·         3.2mm Efree CPMAS probe and 1.3mm ultrafast CPMAS probe- 900 MHz (Fleckvieh)


  *   LC/MS micrOTOF Q II and Bruker Nanostar SAXS (small angle X-ray scattering) instruments are now available for use and collaboration.
  *   For information about LC/MS and SAXS, please email Paulo F. Cobra<mailto:paulo at nmrfam.wisc.edu>.
