Description:
Laboratory of spectrophotometry is equipped with infrared spectrophotometer Nicolet 5700 Thermo Electron Corporation and UV-Vis spectrophotometer SPECORD 250 from Carl Zeiss Jena. Infrared spectra can be measured at laboratory temperature in the range from 4000 cm-1- 400cm-1 (both in KBr pellets and by ATR technique) and in the range from 400 cm-1to 200 cm-1 (FAR-IR).
The device SPECORD 250 operates in the range 190 – 1100 nm. The electronic spectra can be taken in solution or in solid state (Nujol suspension on a Whatman filter paper) at laboratory temperature. The laboratory specializes in research of coordination compounds in solution and in study of their biological activity.
