  *   NMRFAM offers services such as:



     *   collect routine NMR spectra of small molecules, process the data with peak picking and integration, and provide their experimental results in electronic or paper format in order to advance research projects.

Users can submit their samples in 3 or 5 mm NMR tubes before 1 pm every Tuesday and Thursday. Their data will be acquired between 1 - 5 pm of the same day on a 500 MHz spectrometer optimized for 13C (no appointment necessary).

Please email Paulo F. Cobra<mailto:paulofcobra at gmail.com> when you drop off your samples.


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.
