Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a spectroscopic technique that uses a large magnet to study the spin properties of atomic nuclei. It's a physical phenomenon that occurs when nuclei in a strong magnetic field are perturbed by a weak oscillating magnetic field. The nuclei respond by producing an electromagnetic signal with a frequency characteristic of the magnetic field at the nucleus. NMR can be used to study complex structures and interactions in environmental samples. Some types of NMR include: Solution-state NMR: Provides high resolution data and comprehensive molecular...
