NMR Spectroscopy: Processing Strategies (Bigler, Peter)

Jeannette Bigler , Chu

A method is presented for the analysis of fluorescently labeled random amplified polymorphic DNA (FRAPD) fragments. A DNA sequencer and collection and analysis software were used to estimate the sizes of DNA fragments based on their mobilities relative to in-lane size markers. This allowed confident identification and comparison of FRAPD markers both within and between polyacrylamide gels. In c...

NMR-Spectroscopy in Drug Analysis Quantitative NMR Spectroscopy

Choosing the best pulse sequences, acquisition parameters, postacquisition processing strategies, and probes for natural product structure elucidation by NMR spectroscopy.

The relative merits of different pairs of two-dimensional NMR pulse sequences (COSY-90 vs COSY-45, NOESY vs T-ROESY, HSQC vs HMQC, HMBC vs CIGAR, etc.) are compared and recommendations are made for the preferred choice of sequences for natural product structure elucidation. Similar comparisons are made between different selective 1D sequences and the corresponding 2D sequences. Many users of 2D...

NMR Spectroscopy in Microfluidic Stripline NMR Chips

Microfluidic stripline NMR technology not only allows for NMR experiments to be performed on small sample volumes in the submicroliter range, but also experiments can easily be performed in continuous flow because of the stripline’s favorable geometry. In this study we demonstrate the possibility of dual-channel operation of a microfluidic stripline NMR setup showing oneand twodimensional H, C ...

Ultrahigh-Resolution NMR Spectroscopy**

Spectral resolution is vital in NMR spectroscopy, but is instrument-limited. Recent “pure shift” pulse-sequence developments greatly improve resolution, but often at a high cost in sensitivity. We introduce a new class of pure shift experiments (PSYCHE) with superior sensitivity, spectral purity, and tolerance of strong coupling. The key parameters for any spectroscopic technique are sensitivit...
