   Ultra-low temperature operation on Stepan 400

This is a tutorial for ultra-low temperature training on Bruker 400 MHz instrument in Stepah

Prerequisites:

 

Safety Requirements

For experiments at ultra-low temperatures, you will use a portable liquid nitrogen dewar.  Liquid nitrogen is extremely cold and will produce cryogenic burns of the skin and freeze underlying tissue upon contact. You must use the required personal protective equipment (PPE) for handling cryogens: safety glasses, thermal insulated gloves, long-sleeved shirts, trousers without cuffs, and closed shoes. An optional PPE is a full face shield over safety glasses.


A special note on insulated gloves: gloves should be loose-fitting so they are able to be quickly removed if cryogenic liquid is spilled on them. Insulated gloves are not made to permit the hands to be put into a cryogenic liquid. They will only provide short-term protection from accidental contact with the liquid. The NMR room SCH162 has a pair of cryogenic gloves for you to use.
