Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
“… magnetic resonance (…) offers so much freedom and opportunities (…) to explore new experimental schemes that can be fruitfully applied in a variety of disciplines“. Richard R. Ernst, Nobel Lecture, December 9, 1992
Description
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) is a quantitative, non destructive technique, which allows to obtain important informations about structural and dynamic properties of the sample.
NMR finds application in several fields:
- food: adulterations and supply chain controls;
- biomedical: metabolic processes analysis, dynamic and tissues morphology;
- chemical-pharmaceutical: studies of reactions, structural characterization of molecules, identification of impurities;
- materials: structure and composition of polymers.
