TRAINING:
Please read
the Information for
User page for general information if you have not done so.
Mass Spectrometry:
See Prof. Mark Bier, mbier@andrew.cmu.edu. You must be considered a regular user to qualify for training. A regular user will do mass spectrometry
analysis, at least, once every two weeks.
Training typically starts within one-week after you have read the
operator’s manual (2-3 hours). A time
will be set up with the MS instructor and will usually include 2-3 other
students. We are in the process of
developing an exam that you will need to pass before you can use the mass
spectrometer or your choice.
If you are not a regular user, you should print out and
complete a MS Sample Submission form
and drop it off with your sample in MI551.
Incomplete forms will cause a delay in your analysis.
Photon Spectroscopy:
To train on these instruments you should read the operator’s manuals and
then see Prof. Mark Bier if needed, mbier@andrew.cmu.edu.
NMR:
