EPR as a Teaching Tool in the Laboratory
研讨会将描述如何力量的麦克风roESR can be used in introductory, advanced, and or instrumental labs. We will explore the features of the instrument and demonstrate how EPR can be used in the laboratory or classroom to teach both basic concepts and help elucidate non-intuitive subjects such as electron density
In teaching labs, other forms of magnetic resonance are limited to a select few, and this is often due to its being expensive to run combined with the need to book an instrument. This webinar showcases an alternative approach, so that undergraduate laboratory instructors can better prepare chemists for further study by providing hands-on practical experience with the microESR and equip them with a wider range of laboratory skills.
What to Expect
The webinar will look at the principles of EPR and how EPR is the only unambiguous way to look at free radicals. The webinar will focus on the microESR from Bruker BioSpin as a teaching tool in undergraduate labs. Because of its compact size and zero need for maintenance, implementing EPR into undergraduate labs is very straight forward. Participants should expect to see the benefits of a technique that can provide students with hands-on practical experience. The webinar will also demonstrate how the instrument works and what data can be collected.
