Laboratories of the Department of Organic Chemistry, Bioorganic Chemistry and Biotechnology are equipped with:
-
Point diffractometer: Kuma K4 – used for monocrystalline sample analysis. It enables identification of substance forming the crystal. In case of a new, unknown substance, it allows to specify the crystallographic structure of the compound;
-
Flash Biotage Isolera One Chromatograph, equipped with UV-VIS detector and fraction collector – used to conduct preparative chromatographic separation under higher pressure (flash). The device is also provided with a software facilitating the choice of conditions for separation, using the Rf coefficient on the basis of TLC.
-
Automatic device for measuring the melting point: Optimelt MPA100 – the apparatus is equipped with a microprocessor controlling the increase of temperature and a digital camera. It allows to mark the melting point of a substance up to 400*C with accuracy of about 0,3-0,8*C, depending on melting point. It is possible to conduct simultaneous measurements of 3 samples;
