To become a NMR user of the facility, one needs to

• complete the new account info form to open an NMR account.
• agree to abide by the safety policy.

For self-operation

• New users are strongly recommended to attend NMR courses (CHEM471, BCHM669) provided by the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry
• New user must demonstrate proficiency in practical NMR operation, or attend the NMR training provided by the facility.

NMR Trainings

1. Basic NMR trainings at BioNMR Facility
   • Experiment set up (2 hours, mandatory to most of new users ):
     • Sample and Experiment Preparations

Data Processing Computer

A Data Processing computer is available in the lab. Data can be transferred from Spectrometer computers to this computer for further processing and viewing in TopSpin. This computer also has its own IP address to facilitate data transfer to another computer. Details of operation are posted next to it.
