Request for amber, copal, and plant exudate samples for NMR analyses Dear Colleagues:
For years, Dr. Joseph Lambert, myself, and collaborators, have been studying plant exudates (the gooey stuff that many plants ooze), copal, amber, and other such hardened materials of botanical origin using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). If your collection (or you personally) have or know of other such entities that may have, could you send me an email of the list to blayjo...@gmail.com Importantly, a. analyses only need 100 milligrams (roughly, the volume of a new eraser on a school pencil) b. although samples are pulverized, they are not chemically altered and can be returned, if requested. If interested, I will send links to additional recent publications. Apologies for potential duplicate emails. Gratefully, Jorge -- Jorge A. Santiago-Blay, PhD blaypublishers.com 1.
