The MIMM team of the Laboratory has just designed an innovative method for isotope analysis at natural abundance, based on NMR (1).For the first time, this approach is evaluated according to the criteria of green analytical chemistry. The method developed by scientists from the MIMM team consists of using the 2D HSQC NMR sequence, modified...
A research team (1) from the CEISAM laboratory (Chemistry and Interdisciplinarity: Synthesis, Analysis, Modelling – Nantes University/CNRS) has developed a new approach for studying biological samples using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). This breakthrough opens up a wide range of prospects, both in terms of analytical chemistry developments and applications in many other fields (personalized medicine,...
Two scientists of the MIMM team of the CEISAM laboratory have edited a book on fast 2D solution-state NMR, that was just published by the Royal Society of Chemistry. Written by active investigators in the field, this book describes state-of-the-art methods that can accelerate the acquisition of 2D NMR spectra in solution-state. The acquisition of...
In the context of a collaboration between RS2D and Professor Serge Akoka’s group, new electronics have been installed on one of the 400 MHz spectrometers of the CEISAM NMR platform. This equipment (a Quad-C4 console), equipped with a 19F lock, will be dedicated to methodological developments in high precision quantitative NMR and in particular to...
Following an evaluation process conducted by AFNOR, the CEISAM NMR platform has obtained the ISO 9001 certification for its activity in the “Development and services in the field of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance”. This certification marks a commitment towards a continuous improvement approach in the service of its users. It is a recognition of the involvement...
“An introduction to NMR” is intended for scientific students (bachelor or master, Chemistry and Biology in particular), but also for medical and pharmacy students as well as non-specialist researchers. The content includes a phenomenological approach to the principles and various applications of NMR. The book includes many illustrations and analogies; the equations are there but...
The Analytics 2022 conference took place in Nantes in September. Several CEISAM members have actively participated in its organization and its success, as members of the Organizing Committee, volunteers or speakers. The congress, co-organized by the Francophone Network of Metabolomics and Fluxomics, the French Society of Proteomics, the French Society of Mass Spectrometry and the...
In partnership with Service National de Police Scientifique (SNPS) in Lyon, Chemistry And Interdisciplinarity: Synthesis Analysis Modeling (CEISAM) laboratory proposes a novel method using compact Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy combined with multi-method databases to identify and also, for the first time, to elucidate the composition of drugs seized by the Police. Less expensive, more...
ATTOP« ATTOsecond Photochemistry: controlling chemical reactions with electrons » Background and research: After studying chemistry at the École Normale Supérieure (ENS) in Cachan, Morgane Vacher moved to London in 2012 to complete a PhD degree in theoretical chemistry with Mike Robb and Mike Bearpark at Imperial College. Her thesis work focused on the new attosecond science and...
The CEISAM Institute in Nantes (France) invites applications for a CNRS junior Professor position (tenure track) in experimental molecular chemistry. This position targets disruptive aspects of analytical, organic, and/or physical chemistry. Candidates will propose a research project that transcends the frontiers within the disciplines of molecular chemistry. Possible research areas include operando analysis, “digital” chemistry, and/or automated synthesis. The CEISAM Institute (https://ceisam.univ-nantes.fr/en/) encompasses all the molecular chemistry research activities in Nantes University...
