Chenomx NMR Suite can help you to perform many useful tasks. You can find overviews of some common tasks in this chapter. Detailed descriptions of each function mentioned here appear in later chapters.
Before you analyze or otherwise use a spectrum in Chenomx NMR Suite, you need to process it.
To process a spectrum in Processor
-
Open the spectrum (see “Opening Files” and “Importing Spectra”). If necessary, reverse the spectrum plot in the frequency domain. Reversing is only necessary for some Bruker spectra (see “Reverse Spectrum”).
-
(Optional) Apply line broadening to improve the signal-to-noise ratio (see “Line Broadening”).
-
Adjust the phase correction (see “Phase Correction”) as needed.
-
Apply baseline correction (see “Baseline Correction”) as needed.
-
(Optional) Apply shim correction to correct lineshape distortions (see “Shim Correction”).
-
(Optional) Delete the solvent peak from the spectrum (see “Region Deletion”).
Region deletion may not be necessary or desirable for all samples.
-
Define the CSI parameters (see “Calibrate CSI”).
-
Determine the sample pH using imidazole, creatinine or DFTMP (see “Calibrate pH”).
-
Save the spectrum (see “Saving Files”), or jump to Profiler (see Chapter 6, Profiler) to continue with your analysis.
