On June 20, 2025, representatives of the Beijing Physical & Chemistry Testing Technology Society visited CIQTEK. A special seminar on “Innovation and Application of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Technology” was held, along with on-site Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) data testing and comparison. The Beijing Physical & Chemistry Testing Technology Society was established in 1980 as an academic organization voluntarily formed by experts in the analytical testing industry in the Beijing area. Its purpose is to unite and organize professionals in the analytical testing field within Beijing, promoting the development of analytical testing technologies. The society currently has over 1,000 members.   CIQTEK Launched NMR Spectrometer, Impressed Visiting Experts with On-site Performance At the Beijing Spectroscopy Conference held from May 23 to 25, 2025, CIQTEK President Dr. Max He officially announced the new products — the 400 MHz and 600 MHz NMR spectrometers. Although Dr. Max's presentation featured only a few slides on CIQTEK NMR instruments, it sparked considerable interest within the Beijing Physical & Chemistry Testing Technology Society. CIQTEK's emergence as a manufacturer of high-field NMR spectrometers was met with both surprise and excitement. The announcement quickly became a topic of lively discussion, with many experts expressing a strong desire to visit CIQTEK for an in-depth look at the instruments. In response, CIQTEK extended a formal invitation to members of the Beijing Physical & Chemistry Testing Technology Society, including committee members and relevant experts, to visit the company for an on-site evaluation of their NMR research. This marked the Society’s first official delegation visit outside of Beijing.   Group photo of the Beijing Physical & Chemistry Testing Technology Society delegation and the CIQTEK team   On-site Benchmarking: Data Performance, Analysis Speed, and Quantity During the one-day visit, participants engaged in in-depth discussions and hands-on data acquisition. The interaction was highly productive, with both sides delving into technical details and application insights. Numerous questions and suggestions were raised, making the session both interactive and constructive.   Reliable Spectral Data The reliability of spectral data is the primary criterion for evaluating the performance of an NMR spectrometer. Therefore, sensitivity, testing efficiency, and spectral quality were key focuses during this on-site evaluation. During the comparative testing session, two standard samples were prepared for live demonstrations: 0.1% Ethylbenzene — used to evaluate ¹H sensitivity 40% ASTM standard — used to evaluate ¹³C sensitivity   The detailed comparison results are as follows: (1) ¹H sensitivity The test results from other manufacturers are as follows: Brand A: Measured signal-to-noise ratio of 341:1 (sample not s...
