CryoProbe Prodigy

CryoProbe Prodigy offers enormous sensitivity boost at an affordable price both in routine and bio-NMR applications

Highlights

Enhanced Sensitivity
Boosts sensitivity by a factor of 2 to 3 for both 1H and X-nuclei. Corresponds to a 300 MHz booster in sensitivity!
Cost-Efficient
Long service intervals and minimal maintenance costs.
Easy Setup
The Prodigy package includes the probe, a control unit, and a liquid nitrogen vessel, making it easy to set up without requiring additional infrastructure.
Versatile Applications
Ideal for pharmaceutical and chemical applications, enabling faster homonuclear and heteronuclear NMR experiments and doubling signal-to-noise ratio for proton or X-nuclei detected experiments.

Introduction

The CryoProbe Prodigy is a groundbreaking Bruker CryoProbe that significantly enhances sensitivity without breaking the budget. Utilizing nitrogen-cooled RF coils and preamplifiers, Prodigy probes offer a sensitivity boost over room temperature (RT) probes.

The Prodigy package includes the probe, a control unit, and a liquid nitrogen vessel, requiring no additional infrastructure. It features long service intervals and minimal operating and maintenance costs.

The CryoProbe Prodigy family includes double-resonance broadband BBO and BBI, as well as triple-resonance TCI probes, with frequencies ranging from 400 to 700 MHz.

Operating at liquid nitrogen temperatures, Prodigy probes provide a sensitivity enhancement of 2 to 3 times over RT probes for both 1H and X-nuclei. With an automatic tuning accessory (ATMA), the Prodigy is ideal for routine industrial and academic labs, enhancing sensitivity and throughput for small molecule and bio-NMR applications.
