Characterization of Compounds by NMR
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a non-destructive, non-invasive, versatile and quantitative analytical technique that allows the analysis of molecular structures with atomic resolution by providing details on their composition, structure, dynamic processes and chemical reactions. IQS provides analytical services using next-generation NMR equipment to advance on their research and development programs in the pharmaceutical chemistry and chemistry environment, as well as in the areas of Biomedicine, Proteomics, Food Industry and Forensic research, among others.
Structural elucidation of organic compounds, pharmaceuticals and natural products. Development and application of new NMR methodologies.
The service has highly trained staff with a large experience in the study of molecular structures by NMR. Business Services:
