Scheduling and Fees

The scheduling and fees for the instruments varies slightly due to their primary uses.

 

The DRX300 is used mainly for shorter, more routine experiments.

  • Sign-up sheet in the NMR lab for users after initial training.
  • Reservation or walk-on as available.
  • Hourly fee is $5.00.

    •  

    The DRX600 and INOVA600 are used mainly for longer (2 to 7 day) 2D to 4D experiments. With many long experiments being run, and the preparation of samples of variable stability to be timed properly, more planning is required in the scheduling of these instruments. The INOVA600 with CRYOGENIC probe has the highest sensitivity and is best suited for samples and experiments that are limited in sensitivity.

  • Submission of time requests to the NMR lab are processed weekly and are assigned a suitable slot on one of the instruments.
  • Time Request Form for AECOM_NMR (PDF format)
  • Schedule is posted on the web and and in the NMR lab on a weekly basis.
  • Unscheduled time blocks are available for walk-on or sign-up by users after training
  • Hourly fee is $7.50 ($10 for CRYOGENIC probe).
  • Current schedule for DRX600
  • Current schedule for INOVA600

    •  

    The NYSBC NMR Spectrometers are assigned to consortium members as one week time blocks. Because these instruments have the highest sensitivity and are in greatest demand, they are best suited for samples and experiments that are limited in sensitivity and can be run within a one week block.

  • Submission of time requests to the NMR lab are processed weekly and are assigned a suitable slot on one of the instruments.
  • Time Request Form for NYSBC NMR (PDF format)
  • Schedule is posted on the web and and in the NMR lab on a weekly basis.
  • Hourly fee is $16 for 800MHz instrument with CRYOGENIC probe.
  • Current schedule for AECOM time at NYSBC
