Two other similar laboratories for organic synthesis (Nr. 63 and 64) are under construction at “Raluca Ripan” Institute for Research in Chemistry. Main equipments:
- UV-Vis spectrometer (Cecil)
- Fluorescence Spectrometer equipped with integrating sphere (Perkin Elmer)
- Cyclic Voltammetry Potentiometer (BioLogic)
- Semi-preparative HPLC system (Dionex)
- Freeze Drying System (CHRIST)
- Polarimeter (Jasco)
- Karl Fischer Titrator (TitraLine)
- Solid Phase Peptide Synthesizer (Stuart)
- Centrifuge (Hettich)
Prof. Ion Grosu is responsible of the Mass Spectrometry laboratory equipped with an Thermo Scientific LTQ Orbitrap XL and an Agilent 6320 LC-MS systems, working in ESI, APCI and MALDI ionisation modes.
