| Kursus resumé | Quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) is becoming an integral part of many scientific areas, especially within metabolomics, and the handling of the data for the results to be quantitatively reliable is an important issue. This 5-day course has as main objective to introduce tools for pre-processing quantitative NMR data for subsequent multivariate data analysis (chemometrics). | ||||||||||||

| After completing the course the student should be able to: KNOWLEDGE -How to measure and transform NMR spectra for them to be quantitative -How to import Bruker NMR spectra into Matlab -How to install new functions or toolboxes into matlab -Reflections about raw NMR data (do I need them all?) -Scripts setup and check (the help function) -Automatic peak referencing -Peak alignment: icoshift -Normalization methods -Importing processed data into LatentiX and some useful LatentiX tips -Basic chemometrics in Latentix -Advanced chemometrics in Matlab: Hints on interval based tools SKILLS -Suggest and apply pre-processing tools on quantitative NMR data COMPETENCES -Carry out chemometrics on proper pre-processed quantitative NMR spectra | |||||||||||||
| Undervisningsform | |||||||||||||
| One week full work onsite with theoretical lectures including examples and exercises finalized with a PCA and an examination. The students will be able to follow all the examples on their own computers and they will work on their own data during exercises. 5 days lectures and exercises: 50 h, literature reading: 30 h. Total 80 h = 3 ECTS | |||||||||||||
| Målbeskrivelse | |||||||||||||
| Through lectures and exercises, the course will introduce the participants to important pre-processing methods used within NMR - normalization and alignment (referencing, icoshift) of data - and discuss problems, pitfalls and tricks of the trade in relation to quantitative use of NMR spectroscopy. The course will begin with an introduction to quantitative NMR, including possible artifacts which can occur during acquisition and transformation and possibly spoil quantitative features, and the course will end with the participants doing a principal component analysis (PCA) on their own pre-processed NMR data. The content of the course is: Day 1 - Introduction to quantitative NMR, together with Matlab and importing NMR data Day 2 - Dataset structure, cleaning and Normalization Day 3 - Alignment 1 Day 4 - Alignment 2 together with basic chemometrics in LatentiX and advanced chemometrics in Matlab Day 5 - PCA on own NMR dataset and final examination | |||||||||||||
