On-Line Applications of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Technology
Many of the following applications were developed by Process NMR Associates in the period from 1997-2003 while working under contract as the application development partner of the Invenys MRA product. PNA retains the rights to these applications and markets them through NMR Process Systems
