Status Updates (07/05/25)
The 600 MHz and 400 MHz spectrometers are both available for use. Both specs will be unavailable on Weds 14th May due to planned maintenance on the air compressor.
The SamplePro preparation robot is also functional for preparation of aqueous samples - if you wish to use this please contact Nikita.
