Mestrelab Research at ACS 2010

March 19th, 2010

Wow, I have been looking at my last posting and that was more than 3 months ago! Incredible how time flies when you are enjoying yourself!

Of course, the fact that I have not been posting does not mean I have been idle, on the contrary! But now, getting ready to set off for the ACS Spring, it is certainly overdue time to post again.

So, here it goes. This week, we will be exhibiting at the ACS Spring National Meeting, Moscone Exhibition Center, San Francisco, at booth 624. I am excited about this conference, and not only for the fact that it gives me the opportunity to visit a city I really like (San Francisco is a great city in a beautiful area, with lots to do, excellent restaurants, beautiful parks and the stunning Bay, I could write about it for hours!) and to catch an NBA game (or maybe even 2, Golden State Warriors have 3 home games next week!), but mainly because at this exhibition Mestrelab is showcasing a lot of exciting stuff. For me, the highlights are:

  • Version 6.1.0 of Mnova NMR, to be released on Monday, with some really good additional functionality (significant improvements to GSD and to the assignment module, which have been a long time coming)
  • Version 6.1.0 of Mnova MS, full of excellent new features, from new vendor formats (Masshunter, JEOL, Analyst, Iontrap) to  manual peak picking and integration to many other exciting things. For this plugin this version really is a qualitative leap.
  • We will be previewing our VERY SOON to be released Automatic Structure Verification module, designed to help our users validate their structural conclusions in automation.
  • We will also be previewing our VERY SOON to be released Spectral Database, our solution to allow our customers to concentrate and pool their spectral work and knowledge in order to optimize productivity in R&D.

All these are major steps forward for us, and I am really looking forward to see what the market reaction is to them. Of course, should any of you be planning to visit the exhibition, come to find us on booth 624 and we will be delighted to show you our latest goodies! If you are not coming, check out some of our posters from the links on this page.

I promise to follow up with some show photos!

Tip of the day #6: Integrating in stacked mode

March 2nd, 2010

It is very easy integrate a stacked spectrum just by clicking on the manual integration icon and selecting the areas of interest.

Then, just select ‘Active Spectrum’ in the vertical toolbar to show the highlighted spectrum with the integrals.

To navigate through the traces, press and hold down SHIFT and use the up or down arrow keys (or the mouse scroll wheel).

Export to ASCII

Finally, you can export integration analysis to a text file by following the menu File/Save as/MestReNova Integrals.
This will generate a text file which can be loaded into Excel.
