The Fifth Annual International Conference of the Metabolomics Society will be held in Chenomx's hometown of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada from August 31-September 2, 2009.

Chenomx will have several people on hand to help you learn more about our patented targeted profiling technique and how our contract services and software can help you with your research.  Our powerful technology can be used with a variety of sample types and has a broad range of applications.

For more information, or to register for this conference you can go to the Metabolomics Society website here and then click on the 2009 Metabolomics Society Conference link.

If you are not attending, but want to learn more about our patented services and software you can contact us here.

There are still many publications using Chenomx NMR Suite that we have yet to mention! In January 2008, there was a study published in Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism by Shearer et al. entitled Metabolomic profiling of dietary-induced insulin resistance in the high fat-fed C57BL/6J mouse.  This paper used Chenomx NMR Suite to analyze NMR spectra and tested whether targeted metabolomic profiling could be employed as a reliable tool to detect dietary-induced insulin resistance in a small subset of experimental animals.

If you have published any material using Chenomx NMR Suite please let us know and we'll mention it in this newsletter!

When using the Processor module in Chenomx NMR Suite 5.1, even if you intend to manually adjust baseline correction, you may find it helpful to use the Auto Linear function first. Auto Linear lets Processor first locate the "natural" endpoints of the spectrum, giving you a useful starting point for any more complex baseline fit.
