A new 45-megahertz picoSpin nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer has been developed by picoSpin.

The picoSpin-45 NMR spectrometer resolves proton chemical shifts with a resolution of 80 parts per billion using a sample volume of less than 40 micro liters. The new device is a liquid-phase proton NMR system, including permanent magnet, transmitter, receiver, data acquisition, programmable pulse sequencer, ethernet interface and web-based control software, according to picoSpin.
