A solid NMR probe with the throughput of a liquid NMR probe
The JEOL ROYAL PROBE™ AUTOMAS provides a breakthrough system for liquid NMR probe users who may have felt that it is troublesome to use solid NMR probes.
The ROYAL PROBE™ AUTOMAS has the following features:
- Switches between solid samples without removing the probe
- Uses the existing Auto Sample Changer and auto tuning function as is
- Offers the same ease of use as the liquid NMR probes in routine measurements
ROYAL PROBE™ AUTOMAS and ROTORCARRIER™
Smooth sample exchange
Probe exchange that was required in solid state NMR measurements becomes unnecessary. By setting a solid sample tube housed in the ROTORCARRIER™ having the same appearance as the rotor used for the liquid sample tubes, samples can be smoothly loaded and ejected from above the magnet via the ROTORCARRIER™ without touching the probe in the same way as using the liquid samples.
Automatic tuning
Unlike liquid NMR probes, the solid probes require manual tuning. The ROYAL PROBE™ AUTOMAS has the ability to use the same Auto Tuning Unit as the liquid NMR probes, making it possible to tune various nuclei without touching the probe*.
* For some nuclei, the tuning stick needs to be replaced manually.
Continuous automatic measurements
The ROYAL PROBE™ AUTOMAS has the ability to use the existing Auto Sample Changer as is*. Continuous automatic measurements are possible just by setting the ROTORCARRIER™ loaded with the solid sample tube in a slot of the Auto Sample Changer, and specifying measurement conditions, such as pulse sequences, sample spinning speed, and temperature, on the Delta NMR software in the same fashion as the liquid-state NMR measurements.
Sample is loaded from any slot of auto sample changer.
* Supported Auto Sample Changers: ASC24, JackBean 30, 64, 100
