Analysis of enteric microbiota function indirectly through the fecal metabolome has the potential to be an informative diagnostic tool. However, metabolomic analysis of feces is hampered by high concentrations of macromolecules such as proteins, fats, and fiber in samples. Three methods-ultrafiltration (UF), Bligh-Dyer (BD), and no extraction (samples added directly to buffer, vortexed, and centrifuged)-were tested on multiple rat (n = 10) and chicken (n = 8) fecal samples to ascertain whether...

Metabolomics is the study of metabolites present in biological samples such as biofluids, tissue/cellular extracts and culture media. Measurement of these metabolites is achieved through use of analytical techniques such as NMR and mass spectrometry coupled to liquid chromatography. Combining metabolomic data with multivariate data analysis...

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Aging is characterized by derangements in multiple metabolic pathways that progressively constrict the homeostatic reserve (homeostenosis). The signature of metabolic alterations that accompany...

Re: baseline correction
Bruker needs to have good baseline correction facilities in their software because their acquistion methods result in such badly distorted baselines. That

Re: baseline correction
Dear Pipe users, I have the same problem as Kate: heavy baseline distortions in the acquisition dimension in the methyl region of some of my 2D and 3D noesys.

[Question from NMRWiki Q&A forum] qfil: baseline correction
qfil: baseline correction
"the t1 dimensio was processed using the baseline correction mode “qfil” in theXWINNMR software"
Does anyone know about "qfil" method in XWINNMR?How can I realize the "qfil" in vnmrJ?
Thanks in advance!
