The Limit of Detection (LoD) and Limit of Quantification (LoQ) are analytical benchmarks that define the practical boundaries for identifying and measuring a specific analyte within a given matrix, under particular experimental conditions.

In this blog post we present our new optional qNMR automation software. A new easy-to-use software module to allow you to create and edit method to automate routine qNMR assays and allow technicians to collect data effortlessly in bringing benchtop NMR in QA/QC applications to the next level.

In this ever-evolving world where technology and science keep pushing into new territory, new inventions are being made and state-of-the-art validation methods are being developed. Over the last few decades, lithium-ion batteries have gained more and more traction in their uses, moving from general simple batteries used for powering your calculator or phone, to cars and trucks, and even airplanes (currently only the small ones). However, as simple as batteries may seem, a lot of work must be done behind to scenes to develop these subtle but priceless additions to our lives.

Repellents are used worldwide to protect against insect bites. This blog describes fun facts about mosquitoes, which substances are considered safe to be used in repellents applied to the skin, and look inside a pure repellent sample via 1H NMR. Read more.

Quantification of phosphorus-containing species through 31P benchtop NMR analysis. It was evaluated one of the most popular herbicides in the world, Roundup®, and a very common household insecticide, 50% Malathion Concentrate®. Read more.

Tautomers are constitutional isomers that interconvert into each other by an exchange reaction, most commonly a proton transfer. Such two isomers can for example be a ketone and an enol. Read More.

If there is one thing that I could say describes the holiday season best, it would have to be the delicious treats I get to indulge in, such as: gingerbread cookies, pies, peppermint bark, and so many more. Wafting in the aroma of baked goods always gives me butterflies in my stomach and lights up my nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) mind.

In this blog post, I will talk about how to select a suitable calibrant as well as the difference between using an internal and external calibrant. When conducting qNMR experiments, one of the first things that needs to be considered is how the calibrant is employed to quantitate your sample. Read more.

Over the last few years, more and more analytical and industrial laboratories have started employing quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) spectroscopy as a tool for content assignment (due to its superb structural elucidation abilities) and quantification of purity in a sample.
