<td> This center provides high quality, high reliability access to molecular characterization tools. Although our central area of expertise is in magnetic resonance spectroscopy, we have broad capabilities for characterization of small molecules and materials that are readily accessible by the entire USC community. This facility houses the following spectrometers for the Department of Chemistry and Dornsife College. There is a manager associated with each instrument. Contact this person to arrange training. There is also a colored dot following each instrument.
