The KU NMR lab is excited to announce the addition of a new instrument. Yesterday we completed the installation of a brand new EMXplus Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectrometer. EPR Spectroscopy is used to characterize the structural and physical properties of paramagnetic molecules. Paramagnetic molecules are an important class of molecules of interest to scientists in the fields such as chemistry, physics, biology, materials science, pharmacology, toxicology and medicine. Hence, EPR spectroscopy is an important tool for many researchers across the KU campus and regionally.
Below is a picture of our fearless engineer Jesse Liu with Dominic Leto, a graduate student from the Jackson lab helping with the installation.

Initially we have set the rates at $5/hour for internal users and $8/hour for external users. Consumables such as EPR tubes, solvents, cryogens, etc. are not included and will be charged separately.
Please don't hesitate to let us know if you have any questions about how this new instrument can help your research!
