Bruker's New CryoProbe(TM) Prodigy TCI 600 Delivers a 2.5x Proton Sensitivity Boost, Providing a more than 6-fold Throughput Enhancement for Routine and Research NMR

Prodigy TCIprovides a 300 MHz-equivalent Sensitivity Boost for 1H High-Resolution NMR at 600 MHz at a Fraction of the Cost of Ultra-High Field Systems

MIAMI, Apr 16, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) --At the Experimental Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Conference (ENC) 2012, Bruker announces the newCryoProbe Prodigy TCI, the latest member of theProdigyproduct line that delivers tremendous boosts in sensitivity at affordable prices.Prodigy TCIuses nitrogen-cooled RF coils and preamplifiers to deliver a proton sensitivity enhancement of a factor of 2.5, and a carbon sensitivity enhancement of a factor of 2 over room temperature inverse triple-resonance (RT TXI) probes.

Available at 600 MHz, the innovative design of theProdigy TCInot only delivers an incredible performance boost, but does so with minimum operating and maintenance costs, and with long service intervals of over 2 years. TheProdigy TCIrequires no additional infrastructure and is therefore easy to site within a small footprint. A 600 MHz BrukerAVANCE(TM) III HDspectrometer equipped with theProdigy TCInow surpasses 950 MHz NMR room-temperature probes on conventional spectrometers in proton sensitivity. The larger than '300 MHz-equivalent' sensitivity boost makesProdigy TCIeasy-to-use and cost-effective for routine and research NMR applications.

Proton-detected NMR experiments in biomolecular and pharmaceutical research will benefit from the 2.5x increase in signal-to-noise, enabling time-consuming NMR experiments to be performed more than 6 times faster. The design of theProdigy TCIwith its cooled13C preamplifier enhances versatility compared to conventional TXI probes, and its RF power handling challenges that of RT probes.TheCryoProbe Prodigy TCIwill enable structural biology research labs, as well as small molecule NMR labs in pharmaceutical and chemical industries, to drastically increase their sample throughput. Combined with an optional automatic tuning and matching accessory (ATMA), theProdigy TCIis now the probe of choice in terms of cost/performance ratio for many industrial and academic labs.

TheProdigy TCIis yet another extension of Bruker's unique, game-changingCryoProbe技术。重击的先驱和领导者opment of cryogenically cooled probes for high-resolution NMR and preclinical MRI, Bruker remains unmatched with over 1,100CryoProbesinstalled worldwide.

"TheProdigy TCIexpands the successfulCryoProbe Prodigyproduct line introduced in 2011," commented Dr. Werner Maas, President of Bruker BioSpin. "More than a decade ago Bruker's firstCryoProbescreated a paradigm shift in biological NMR. Now the new, cost-effectiveCryoProbe Prodigyproduct line is enabling routine and analytical NMR customers to benefit from an incredible '300 MHz-equivalent' boost in sensitivity."
