Available equipment and analytical possibilities
Among the available techniques and apparatus should be mentioned:
- mass spectrometers coupled with GC and LC (due to a wide variability of ionization techniques and mass analysis modes we offer professional advises within methods development and interpretation of the results)
- spectrometry NMR 700 MHz and 500 MHz (also coupled to LC)
- diffractometric techniques for crystal analysis
- fluoroluminometers for analysis of ultra trace concentrations of biomolecules
- spectrophotometers
- thermocyclers and incubators
- analytical and preparative high performance liquid chromatography with various types of detection (spectrophotometric, fluorimetric, cascade diode conductivity, et al.) as well as gas chromatographs (due to a wide variability we offer professional advises within methods development and interpretation of the results)
- thermoanalytical instrumentation
- wide variability of electromigration techniques
