The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (ATS FoC) operates a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Lab that analyzes molecular properties in a variety of samples.
What is Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy?
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a technique for observing molecular behavior and composition within a sample.
NMR spectroscopy exposes a sample to a magnetic field and radio waves, exciting atoms and generating an alternating current. Sensitive detectors measure changes in energy states between atoms. The resulting frequencies reveal numerous characteristics about their composition and relationships between adjacent molecules.
What Information Can NMR Spectroscopy Reveal?
NMR spectroscopy leverages the unique magnetic properties of individual atoms. Because of this, the technique can provide insight into various characteristics, including:
- Elements Present
- Atomic Connections and Structure
- Mixture/Compound Composition
- Molecular Geometry
- Identifying Unknown Components
- Molecular Interactions
NMR is a non-destructive testing method, so samples remain intact and can be reused or retested.
What Industries Commonly Use NMR Laboratory Services?
Many industries rely on nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy labs for critical molecular analysis, including:
- Oil and Gas
- Material Science and Polymers
- Research and Development
- Environmental Monitoring
- Food and Beverage
- Chemical Research
Companies trust the ATS FoC Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Lab for accurate identification of atomic properties.
The ATS FoC: Our Process is Rooted in Partnership
Since 1967, ATS has expanded into a family of companies (FoC) committed to a safer, more reliable world. In 2026, we partnered with SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection, and certification company, to support clients globally.
Our facilities maintain multiple accreditations and registrations across our organization. Our ISO 9001:2015-registered quality management system ensures accurate, reliable results, while ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditations demonstrate consistency and technical competency.
