Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Facility

Our NMRs serve several other McMaster departments and research institutes as well as many clients outside the University.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Facility

The Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Facility was established in 1985, with funding from NSERC and McMaster University. Our Facility currently maintains 8 NMR spectrometers including a Bruker AVANCE III 700MHz, funded by CFI and the Province of Ontario. Our NMRs serve several other McMaster departments and research institutes as well as many clients outside the University. The Facility is highly regarded in the Canadian chemical community for its versatility in the types of samples (organic, inorganic, biochemical, geological, industrial, forestry, agricultural and biomedical materials) that can be analyzed. It's also known for the number of nuclei that can be studied by solution and solid state NMR. For more information about our sevices and fees, contact our Facilty Manager, Bob Berno.
