SpinWorks
SpinWorks is an NMR Spectra processing program developed at the U of M that runs on Windows, Mac OS and Linux.
The SpinWorks software package provides easy, basic offline processing and analysis of 1D, 2D and 3D NMR data on personal computers.
Full support is included for:
- Bruker (XwinNMR/UXNMR, 1D to 3D)
- Varian or Agilent (Unix VNMR/VNMRJ, 1D to 3D)
- JEOL (1D and 2D)
- Processed NMRPIPE (1D to 3D)
- Magritek (1D), Anasazi (CDFF, 1D and 2D)
- TECMAG (1D) data
JCAMP-DX format is also supported for 1D only. The following indirect detection modes are included:
- States
- TPPI
- States-TPPI
- Single Detection (QF)
- Echo-antiecho
There are two distinct versions of SpinWorks. SpinWorks 4 will work on any Windows system supporting the .NET runtime. Essentially, Windows XP and up.
The newest version is Java-based and will run on Windows, MacOS X and Linux. This version requires the Java JDK, not just the Java JRE, to be installed. The Java JDK is available free from Oracle. This version is still in beta testing. It is intended this version will eventually be “open source."
