Bruker DPX 200 (Augner TS 1.3 pl 10) Bruker DPX 300 (Moskau TS 1.3 pl 10) Bruker AVII 400 (Einarsson TS 2.6 pl 6 and Maas TS 3.0 pl3)
Booking regulations:
Bruker DPX 200 NMR spectrometer. Weekdays: Over night experiments starts at 16.00 and ends at 08.00 the following day. The hour between 08.00 and 09.00 is often reserved for Synthetica AS. Maximum booking time is one hour between 09.00 and 14.00 hours. Between 14.00 and 16.00 you can book up to two hours. If you book time on both sides of 14.00 time limit you must not book more than one hour. If no one has booked time in the period after you - when you have 5 minutes left of your time - you can book a new slot.
On Saturdays, Sundays and official Holidays there are no booking restrictions.
Bruker DPX 300 and AVII 400 spectrometers. Open access all days when the BACS-60 / BACS-120 sample changers/ICONNMR are in use. If someone is editing the experiment list in the ICONNMR program when you arrive in the lab you obviously have to wait until that person is finished. When the instrument is used for teaching or is used for other special activities you will be informed by e-mail and/or by messages on "News from the University of Oslo NMR Center" to the left on this page. In addition the instrument will be reserved on the booking pages. You are ordinarily not allowed to run 13C experiments (or other experiments) longer than 6 hours - you see length of the experiment time to the right in the ICONNMR window after submitting the experiment. If more than 6 hours is indicated you have to cancel the experiment and select a lower number of scans. If you need longer experiment time you have to get permission from the staff. You should ordinarly plan such experiments to be done between Christmas and New Year and during Easter.
When using the BACS sample changer you must remember to remove your sample and delte the entry in ICONNMR.The sample must be removed and the experiment definition(s) must be deleted in the ICONNMR program within 24 hours after completion of the experiment(s). The time between midnight Friday/Saturday and midnight Sunday/Monday is not included when calculating this 24 hour period.

PC Ø338 (Ackermann) PC2 Ø319 (Cunskis)
PC3 Ø340 (Schett) PC4 Ø332 (Braumann) PC5 Ø319 (Keller)
Booking regulations:
On the five processing PCs in rooms Ø 319 (Cunskis and Keller), Ø 338 (Ackermann), Ø 340 (Schett) and Ø 332 (Braumann) you can book all the time you need for processing your NMR data. Available programs: Xwinnmr 3.5 (Schett, Ackermann and Cunskis), TopSpin 1.3 (Cunskis and Ackermann) and TopSpin 2.1 (Schett, Keller and Braumann).
Cunskis is automatically receiving all NMR data generated by the automation program ICONNMR on the Bruker DPX 300 instrument (run by the PC Moskau). With up to a delay of 24 hours Ackermann will receive the same data. The computer Schett is immediately receiving copies of all data generated on AVII 400 (Einarsson). Data created by ICONNMR on AV600 (Kuemmerle) is copied immediatley to Ackermann.
In addition you can process NMR data with the program Topspin 1.3 (five licenses) on the Windows 2003 server pauling.uio.no. You must log in to pauling using the Remote Desktop Connection program. A manual for how to do this can be found under the heading "NMR manuals".
Somewhat restricted access
Only NMR personell (Petersen and Rise) may book time for their own use as well as for all other certified users at these three NMR-instruments. Everyone can look at the schedule. The time slots on the DRX 500 and the AV 600 instruments are distributed regularly. The time slots on the AVII 600 instrument are distributed for three month periods by a committe consiting of two University of Oslo employees, one person from UMB and one person from the Norwegian School of Veterinary Sciences since this instrument has a shared ownership and is dedicated to large biological molecules
