Mnova License

CCB's Laukien-Purcell Instrumentation Center (CCB LPIC) Mnova license includes: Mnova NMR, Mnova qNMR, Mnova Reaction Monitoring, Mnova Mass, Mnova ElViS, and Mnova NMRPredict. All licensed components are available to all active CCB LPIC users. Each user may request one copy of the license. The license is renewed annually (every December for the following calendar year). Other CCB students and employees may request an Mnova license but must pay an annual fee that requires a 33-digit account string by February of the calendar year to which the license applies.
