Bruker Introduces CMC-assist™, the First NMR Software Tool Enabling the Seamless, Integrated Routine Workflow from Acquisition to Molecular Structure Report Generation

With CMC-assist routine and occasional NMR users can now benefit from a highly efficient tool for spectral interpretation.  CMC-assist enables complex analysis of 1D 1H NMR datasets, thus covering the most commonly experimental approaches in industry and academia.  Its innovative analysis algorithm performs on-the-fly, fully automated spectra interpretation based on human-logic emulation technology.  Solvent resonances and impurities are detected and assigned, and where a structural proposal is provided by the user, CMC-assist performs an automatic consistency check and delivers a full spectral assignment.  Finally, when a reference data set has been provided, the analysis procedure will automatically determine the concentration of the sample.
 
CMC-assist is aimed at improving throughput and efficiency for NMR users in their analysis of small molecule proton NMR data.  In addition, CMC-assist features an uncomplicated user interface that enables novice NMR users to sidestep some of NMR’s learning curve, achieved by grouping all user actions by area of application, and ordering of the native workflow by importance and complexity.  The user has optimal control over all steps of the analysis, with the added convenience of being able to manually refine the automatically generated results, if desired.   To be able to realize this feature, Bruker has developed an innovative workflow-oriented process enabling users to work with spectra and chemical structures at the same time, allowing complex reports of varying depths of information to be generated by a mouse click.
