Spectroscopy and structural elucidation
Our services
Analysis is an important part of Research & Development. This applies to structural analysis in particular, which is now pushing at the margins. We analyze highly complex organic compounds, active ingredients and biomolecules, and have all the methods available to us for this, including high-end techniques. Our services are available to you as a total package or in a modular form. On request, we can also supply spectra for you to perform your own analyses.
Your advantages
- You obtain structural information or complete structure elucidations from us quickly and at a competitive price because we have access to all spectroscopic techniques and a very extensive pool of methods
- You make savings in terms of your own manpower and fixed asset resources because you benefit from our many years of experience and the advanced technology available to us in-house
Our strengths
Because we use high-end instruments, only the smallest amounts of substance are required for analysis, which means that we are able to analyze large and sensitive molecules.
We make use of a wide range of spectroscopic and chromatographic coupling methods and also use highly developed single crystal x-ray diffraction techniques.
Our involvement in research projects (focusing on pharmaceuticals, crop protection and polymers) means that we are continuously developing our expertise and also keep abreast of the latest developments.
