Bruker BioSpin Introduces the Avance™ III, the Fastest, Highest Performance and Most Flexible NMR Spectrometer Ever

At Pittcon 2007, Bruker BioSpin announced the introduction of its novel Avance III NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectrometer. With the further enhanced Avance III NMR spectrometer architecture, Bruker BioSpin introduces the fastest, highest performance and most flexible NMR spectrometer on the market today. The Avance III architecture is based on a forward-thinking electronics concept with an unprecedented level of digital control, exceptionally pure NMR frequency generation and unmatched speed and flexibility.

Avance III systems have already successfully been placed in all Bruker BioSpin applications and demonstration laboratories worldwide. The Avance III also has gone through very rigorous and extended customer testing and validation, and has received an enthusiastic customer reception. It is available for immediate delivery for all NMR applications and NMR frequencies from 300 up to 950 MHz.

The Avance III is the next generation in the very successful Avance product line, which has established Bruker BioSpin as the clear global technology and market leader in NMR and pre-clinical MRI. The Avance III spectrometer is designed around an advanced digital concept that provides an optimized pathway for highest speed RF generation and data acquisition with a highly modular and scalable transmitter and receiver channel architecture.

The Avance III features the most advanced RF generation in the industry, a unique digital lock for superb experimental stability, and second-generation digital receiver (2G-DR) technology for high dynamic range, high digital resolution and large bandwidth digital filtering. The result is the extremely fast Avance III spectrometer with 25 ns event timing (12.5 ns clock), including simultaneous phase, frequency and amplitude switching, and unsurpassed RF performance, enabling even the most demanding new solid-state NMR experiments.

Together with a wealth of performance-leading CryoProbes™ and other advanced liquids, solids and imaging NMR probe choices, and a broad array of automation and hyphenation options, the Avance III is the NMR spectrometer that will enable not just the latest, but also future experiments and research applications. Bruker BioSpin already offers the most advanced UltraShield™ NMR magnets in the industry. Easy upgradeability through software updates, improved remote service and support, and established multiple-receiver operation are just a few of the benefits of the newest Avance III architecture.

The Avance III is operated via the popular TopSpin™ software that enables easy access to the power of the spectrometer for both routine industrial, walk-up or automation customers, as well as for cutting-edge NMR structural biologists and solid-state researchers.
