Magic Angle Spinning (MAS) Probes
The NMR Instituut, led by Prof. Ago Samoson, has been a chief innovator of MAS NMR probes for many years. Prof. Samoson has numerous publications and patents, which are reflected in the innovation of these leading edge probes.
NMRi offers the highest speed and sensitivity, particularly important for the rapidly expanding field of bio-solids. NMRi offers a range of sample sizes which dictate the maximum spinning speed.
NMRi probes share many convenient features allowingevennovice users to obtain excellent results
• CNH, XH and other tuning options cross coil (low heating) optimized for 13C
• low power decoupling
• >100 kHz optimized for 1H sensitivity
• largest sample volume for each speed
• -160° .. +400°C
• temperature “shimming”
• universal MAS controller and logger
• in situ flow, fast temperature change
• sensor assisted rotor service toolkit
• any liquids/solids console compatibility
• NB/WB magnet
• probe lift
• remote angle control
• C, H pulse < 3 us
• N pulse < 5 us
• 45 kHz- low power decoupling, biological 13C work
• 25 kHz- standard probe for hi-res consoles
• 15 kHz- max S/N (requires high power amplifiers)
• VT -160 ..+150 C

- VT-170… +150C
600 1H/13C/15N, 50 is a three radio frequency channel probe, optimized for 1H detection. The second and third probe channel is tuned either to 13C or 15N, respectively and can be used for simultaneous decoupling. The probe is equipped with actively shielded single-axis gradient. All channels including lock can be tuned and matched without removing the probe. The probe can be operated at temperatures between -50ºC and +100 ºC using the appropriate accessories (not included).
Key Features:
- All channels tune-and match-able, lock included
- Actively shielded Z-gradient and 2H lock
- Superior water suppressionir
