Distributed Lab Topology: Solution deployment enabled by software

Smart Deployment Concepts

Implementing an integrated NMR solutions, enables to focus high-investment instruments on sophisticated tasks only whilst reducing time-to-result and optimizing testing frequencies in high-throughput environments.

Validated Method Consistency

Applying tailored expressions of the very same technology throughout the entire value chain allows for harmonized methods, and for service and training synergies. Validating new testing methods, streamlining audit trails, and analytical case escalation significantly benefit from using one core technology.

Real-Time Data Focus

De-centralizing operator independent analytical data acquisition increases information density. Real-time multi-parameter data analysis allows for pro-active production process control and correction.

A New Laboratory Topology for NMR Analysis

NMR is a unique and powerful technique for chemical analysis ranging from basic identification and quantification of substances to molecular structure elucidation. With a range of NMR systems – from cost-optimized benchtop devices to high-performance floor-standing instruments – Bruker provides a powerful solution portfolio for comprehensive value chain coverage from product innovation to manufacturing. Powered by our industry-leading analysis and acquisition software TopSpin, Bruker NMR systems enable organizations to achieve a Distributed Laboratory Topology (DLT) in which expertise, methods, and data can be easily and quickly shared between different stages in the value chain and different locations.

Benefits

Technology: cross-compatible NMR solutions

Only Bruker offers a comprehensive approach: rather than focusing on either floor-standing or benchtop devices, we offer a full suite of cross-compatible NMR solutions to provide cost efficiency, maximized solution deployment and operation capabilities at all scales of operation.

In advanced analytical applications, Bruker’s high-field NMR systems set the industry standard: Our Ascend series of superconducting NMR magnets combine a number of innovative technologies for unparalleled performance, while our streamlined AvanceCore systems offer sophisticated high-field NMR analysis at exceptionally low cost of ownership.

The complete Avance floor-standing NMR product lines are highly customizable tool-boxes for a variety of analytical questions.

Alongside these floor-standing systems, Bruker’s Fourier series of benchtop NMR systems use low-field technology to provide a compact and easy-to-use solution suited to routine laboratory and manufacturing applications. The Fourier 80, a benchtop system composed of a permanent magnet, is certainly much smaller and less heavy.

Aside from the evident price difference, the required infrastructure, logistics for the installation and maintenance diverge for the floor standing systems.

The Fourier 80 benchtop spectrometer may be placed in any temperature-stable (and if possible, vibration-free) environment. The entire set up is by magnitudes less demanding than for a high field spectrometer, in principle no specific infrastructure is required.

Software

All Bruker NMR systems – from floor-standing to benchtop – are unified by our industry-leading acquisition and analysis software, TopSpin. Using the same piece of software to operate NMR systems at all scales opens the door to significant improvements in organization-wide efficiency through what we call a Distributed Lab Topology (DLT). Any experiment set up in TopSpin can be imported into the push button graphic interface GoScan.

GoScan
Designed for the Fourier 80 and AvanceCore, GoScan serves as an intuitive and easy to handle software. Standard and customized experiment setups and NMR acquisition are made accessible also to less experienced NMR users, students for instance. Ranging from the push button usage of pre-defined experiment setups to the option to individually create sophisticated experiments, GoScan is meant to serve users of any level of expertise. In combination with a sample-changer, measurements can be run in automation and their status observed immediately.

Mdrive qNMR GxP
Potency determination, absolute compound purity assessment, identity testing, residual solvent, moisture analysis, relative response factor calculation... Have you thought about using quantitative NMR as a one-stop solution? Mdrive qNMR, new tool for potency/purity determination, streamline this process with a fully automatic workflow from experiment submission to report, making it the ideal solution for both experts and non-experts working in an industrial laboratory environment, where an efficient quality control process is key to gain time to market.

TopSpin
TopSpin^® is Bruker's standard NMR software used in a wide range of workflows. Starting with the control of the spectrometer up to the processing and analysis of multidimensional NMR spectra. The acquisition interface provides easy access to vast NMR experiment libraries including standard Bruker pulse sequences and user generated experiment libraries, for both routine and advanced NMR users. TopSpin provides numerous options for setting up and optimizing NMR experiments, making the setup of sophisticated experiments simple and efficient. For users who must be compliant with the GxP regulations, the software supports the various principles of data integrity.
