Congratulations @PatrickLab_MS ! Great achievement!

Thanks, Glenn! I caught Amy Fruend here at SERMACS, and I think she's going to help me out. Will let you know.

Maybe we really are a football school? Just a different kind of football...

Would love to talk offline if you're willing.

You wouldn't still happen to have that hoesy dataset would you? I've been having the darnedest time getting a hoesy to work. Super low signal to noise. Having a working parameter set would be invaluable to me.

Wow. Five bots followed me today (all now blocked). That's a new record.

Did you ever make the software available? Looks like it could be useful, though it may not work with TS4.

Oh my, yes. The default behavior is so weirdly inconvenient.

With our new 800 #NMR and NMR facility manager, this would be perfect for someone with interests in biophysical NMR. Reach out if you have questions! @nmr900

Does this approach risk shortening the life of the amplifier because of the reflected power? The optimum tuning profile looks pretty far off.

Update: It seems to work. You need to modify the pulse program to include "SWITO" statements, and sometimes this involves adjusting delays to maintain phasing. Decoupling during acquisition is harmful to the SNR.

And the thermometers are only as good as their calibration!

I'm trying. I modified one of them to add the QNP switch commands. I think it's working, but I'm getting lower signal than expected. By default, those programs are not written for the QNP accessory, and it looks like they expect separate amplifiers for H and F.

Is there any reason why a Bruker QNP accessory couldn't be used to collect phase-sensitive gradient experiments (e.g. a 19F{1H} HOESY on a 1H/BBF probe)? "hoesyfhqfqnrv" is okay, I'd like to clean up artifacts, and that program is limited to QF mode. @nmr900 #NMR

Starting today, thanks to @NSF, MSU is now recycling nearly all of the helium in its #NMR facility. It's been a crazy week, but Bryan from @BlueFors_Ltd got us up and running. @nmr900

Dan's looking for his next position, so please reach out if you need a creative and innovative scientist with expertise in protein biochemistry/biophysics, nanomaterials, and 3D printing!

A couple of days late, but congratulations to Dr. Dhanush Amarasekara for successfully defending his dissertation entitled "Engineering Functionalized Nanomaterials for Targeting and Ablating Biofilms."
