The Whittier College chemistry department has acquired many pieces of modern instrumentation in recent years that are routinely used by our students in our laboratory classes and in our research endeavors.

A 300 MHz NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance) highlights our instrument holdings and was obtained from a Department of Defense (DOD) grant in 2003.

 

Other pieces of equipment include the following:

Gas Chromatograph-Mass Spectrometer (GCMS)



2 Gas Chromatographs (GC)




Infrared Spectrophotometer (FTIR)




Atomic Absorption (AA) Spectrophotometer



High Performance Liquid Chromatograph (HPLC)



Refrigerated High Speed Centrifuge



Microplate Reader




2 Diode Array Spectrophotometers (UV-Vis)



Capillary Electrophoresis
