NUTS
Spectrum Research is now offering the 1D and 2D processing capabilities of NUTS Lite, NUTS 1D and NUTS Pro with its suite of programs.
SpecMan and NMR-SAMS when combined with NUTS provide an integrated system for Computer Assisted Spectral Analysis and Structure Elucidation. After processing the raw data (fids) with NUTS, the processed spectrum files can be directly imported into SpecMan and NMR-SAMS for automating bookkeeping, analysis, spectral interpretation, assignment and structure elucidation. The following features are included in all NUTS versions:
- Extensive on-line Help with specific examples.
- Customizable "Quick Keys" for frequently used command sequences.
- Menus and command line active simultaneously for maximum flexibility
- Macros for automation of complex processing operations.
- Configuration file lets you customize NUTS for your preferences.
- Automatic and real-time phasing.
- Automatic integration and peak picking.
- Real-time readout of peak information at cursor position, including frequency difference.
- Integrals and peak frequencies labeled on the screen and plots.
- Copy and paste to other applications.
- Multiple options for apodization, including phase-shifted sine and resolution enhancement.
- Command log records processing commands and parameters.
- Shimming simulation.
- Virtual Spectrometer - simulation of FT-NMR data acquisition.
Data translation from most spectrometer models:
- Bruker Aspect 2000/3000, X32, UNIX and XWin-NMR files
- Varian XL, Gemini, VXR, Unity and Inova files (old Gemini, XL and VXR files are translated via V_Helper utility software)
- Nicolet Dexter and TMON files
- GE Omega, GN and QE files
- JEOL Delta, GXD/GXP, EX, FX, Lambda, Alpha, ALS and "generic" exported files
- Chemagnetics files
- Tecmag MacFID, MacNMR and NT-NMR files
- ATI ASCII and binary files
- SMIS files
- NMRi files
- Analogic files
- Anasazi Instruments files
- Process Control Technology files
- PC-NMR files in Lybrics format
- Win-NMR files
- Galactic (Grams-386) files
NUTS Lite Features:
- Basic 1D processing and plotting.
- Includes all 1D features except subroutines such as Add/Subtract, Polynomial baseline correction, Relaxation analysis, Line Fit, Spectrum Simulation, Peak labeling, inset plots, linear prediction, buffers, searchable archive and importing of graphics objects.
- Display peak labels using the PP command and do polynomial baseline correction. The subroutines which allow these functions to be performed interactively are not included, but the Lite version now includes these features using default settings.
- NUTS Lite now includes shimming simulation and Virtual Spectrometer!
- More advanced 1D analysis, peak picking, bookkeeping and spectral assignment features are available in SpecManLite which reads NUTS Lite processed files.
NUTS 1D Features:
- Multiple options for copying spectra to other applications to create high-quality figures.
- Text annotation.
- Chemical structure, logo or other graphical object printed on screen and plots.
- Inset plots.
- Multiple baseline correction options, including 5th order polynomial.
- Linear Prediction for correction of rolling baselines.
- Interactive adjustment of apodization functions.
- Spectrum simulation based on shifts and coupling constants, up to 12 spins.
- Multiple line deconvolution routine for integrating overlapping peaks.
- Spectrum Addition/Subtraction and Dual Display of 2 spectra.
- Automated processing of series of spectra such as kinetics or relaxation data.
- Analysis and display of relaxation data with calculation of T1 and T2.
- Math functions for automated calculations.
- Buffers subroutine for displaying multiple spectra.
- Searchable Archive for managing collections of spectra.
NUTS Pro Features (in addition to all the above):
- Processes magnitude, TPPI, States-type hypercomplex, echo/anti-echo and States-TPPI data.
- Forward Linear Prediction.
- Macros supplied to perform 2D processing with a single command.
- Macros are text files which can easily be edited to provide customized processing.
- Quick intensity maps and contour plots.
- High-resolution 1D spectra displayed on edges of contour plots.
- Two-dimensional "Zoom" using the mouse for easy expansion.
- User control of contour level spacing and colors.
- Real-time display of slices under mouse control overlaid on contour plots.
- 2D peak-picking using the mouse; peaks can be labeled with shift values or other text.
- More advanced peak picking, bookkeeping, and spectral assignment features are available in SpecMan/SpecManPlus which read NUTS 2D processed spectra. SpecMan combined with NMR-SAMS automates the structure elucidation of small molecules with NMR data.
- Volume integration.
- Real-time readout of cursor coordinates in both dimensions.
- Projections and stacked plots of entire spectrum or selected region.
- Symmetrization.
- Step-wise viewing of slices.
- Arrayed Mode, where all processing is done in memory, and is both faster and simpler. NUTS Pro is required for 3D processing.
