Center for Magnetic Resonance

Today Prof. Dr. A.V. Aganov, head of the Medical Physics department of Kazan Federal University, has visited our center.

National High Magnetic Field Laboratory (MagLab) is the largest and highest powered magnet lab in the world. The MagLab has seven user facilities located across three campuses. MagLab offers scientists from across the globe free access to unique instruments and expertise.
Among the instruments there are several record holders, including the 45-tesla hybrid magnet, which offers scientists the strongest continuous magnetic field in the world. Also there are resistive magnet cells, several superconducting magnets operating at millikelvin temperatures, pulsed magnets ranging from 50T to 100T, and up to the 300T Single Turn Magnet, of different pulse widths to support a wide variety of users.

More information about MagLab you can find here.

1 GHz NMR system with a first-generation, unshielded 23.5 Tesla magnet has been running at the Ultra-High Field NMR Center in Lyon, France since 2009. Bruker intends to deliver the world’s first, next-generation 1GHz NMR systems with actively-shielded Aeon™ 1 GHz magnets to the University of Bayreuth, Germany, in late 2015, and to the University of Toronto, Canada in the first half of 2016.
Ultra-high field NMR in combination with other experimental and computational methods, has recently been shown to enable more detailed studies of the structural ensembles, post-translational modifications, dynamics, multiple interactions, specific binding partners, signaling and regulatory roles, formation of membrane-less cellular organelles, and other functions of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins (IDPs).

At CMR we have measured NMR spectra of these nuclei
