Department of Chemistry


Since 1965, the Mass Spectrometry Facility (MSF) has existed to provide top-quality mass spectrometry support to the faculty research groups of the Indiana University-Bloomington Chemistry Department. The MSF is one of many technical support facilities in the Chemistry Department; its faculty advisor is Dr. David Clemmer. The laboratory is located in rooms A411 between Electronics Instrument Services and the Indiana Molecular Structure Center and A454 in the Chemistry Building.

Announcements

  • Starting Monday August 30, ALL submissions for accurate mass (high res) MUST include a nominal mass (low res) spectrum with the sample sheet if possible. Non-screened samples will be billed at the “special” rate ($30/ea).
  • Self-serve mass spectrometry is significantly less expensive than staff-run analyses. See Jon or Angie to get training on the mass spectrometers.
  • All samples for staff analysis must be submitted with both paper and online forms.
