Pfizer and UCC in spectrometer boost

PFIZER and University College Cork have embarked on a joint collaboration involving the installation of a state-of-the-art 400MHz Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectrometer in UCC’s Analytical and Biological Chemistry Research Facility (ABCRF).

The spectrometer will be used daily by researchers from both the ABCRF and Pfizer’s process development centre and enhance UCC’s reputation as a world-class research institution.

The ABCRF, under the direction of Professor Anita Maguire, is housed together with UCC’s School of Pharmacy in the new Cavanagh Pharmacy Building.
