It is sometimes useful as a solvent for infrared spectroscopy â1. Because carbon tetrachloride does not have any hydrogen atoms, it was historically used in proton NMR spectroscopy.

Starchy Staples. Local Anguillan foods, as throughout the world, depend on starchy supporting staples. With much of Anguilla depending on imports in any case, these staples are diverse.
