Mnova reviewed in the Journal of Chemistry Information and Modeling
I have been meaning to post this blog for a few days, but it has been a crazy couple of weeks. Carlos was more diligent than me, and you can read his post on the subject on his blog, already over one week old.
JCIM has recently published a review of Mnova NMR written by Dr. Tim Claridge, of Oxford University. We are delighted with this review, as we regard Tim as one of the most credible and reputable reviewers we could have had for the software, both in his position as Director of NMR Spectroscopy at the Organic Chemistry Department and as author of High-Resolution NMR Techniques in Organic Chemistry, an NMR educational book widely used by Universities worldwide and also widely used by the Mestrelab team (available from Amazon here, just in case you don’t have a copy yet).
We take our work on Mnova NMR very seriously, and are proud of it, and having it reviewed by such a prestigious figure is both exciting but also slightly nerve wracking, a bit reminiscent of graduation exams (do you remember when you took those?). We could not have been more delighted with Tim’s conclusions, which you can read in the full article, and of which I quote just one excerpt:
‘In conclusion, I would recommend highly this software to any chemist or spectroscopist seeking a desktop package for the analysis of 1D and 2D NMR data sets. Its attractive and intuitive graphical interface combined with some smart functionality will suit less experienced users, while dedicated spectroscopists will also be impressed with the more advanced functionality it contains.’
We are obviously very happy with this endorsement, and very proud of it, and this is the reason why we are shouting about it everywhere (our blogs, website, emails and conversations with anyone who cares to listen). I want to thank JCIM for their interest in Mnova and Tim for the work he has obviously put into the review. Also congratulations to Carlos, Nikolay and our whole development team for the first part of a job well done (lots to do yet!).
BTW, if you have not tried the software yet and you would like to do so, you can download version 5.3.1 from the Mnova download page.
