ReactLab

ReactLab™ Global Analysis Software
Product code: REACTLAB

Software tools for the global analysis of multiwavelength spectroscopic data

ReactLab software tools by Jplus Consulting have been designed specifically to enable researchers and chemical engineers to gain the maximum reaction information from their multivariate chemical process measurements.

The new ReactLab family of software products currently comprises of two sophisticated applications dedicated to the modelling and analysis of multivariate spectrophotometric chemical process data.  These Windows applications enable the global fitting of multivariate data in order to establish and quantatively analyse reaction mechanisms yielding reaction rate constants and equilibrium constants as well as concentration profiles and spectra of intermediate species.

TgK Scientific Limited have formed a collaborative partnership with Jplus Consulting who are an analytical software development and consulting company.  Jplus Consulting specialise in innovation of advanced multivariate data analysis software tools for use in spectroscopic chemical process investigations.

Applications include:

• Quantitative analysis of chemical reaction processes
• Determination of chemical reaction mechanisms
• Reaction modelling and simulation
• Process monitoring, analysis and optimisation
• Enzyme kinetics and mechanistic analysis
• Ligand and drug binding studies
• Teaching and education

Key features:

• Global analysis of multivariate spectrophotometric data to determine underlying reaction mechanisms together with all reaction parameters and intermediate spectra. Compatible measurements include UV-Vis, IR, Raman, NMR, ESR and CD.
• A compiled Matlab analysis kernel and graphical GUI which is extremely robust and easily maintained.
• A versatile Excel based data and modelling interface providing a familiar application environment and enabling the use of Excel tools and graphics to explore experimental data and analysis results.
• Reaction modelling and simulation of theoretical reaction schemes for testing model resolvability and general educational experimentation.
• A unique reaction scheme interpreter allowing simple entry of symbolic reaction mechanisms with support for symbols or full species names with stoichiometry coefficients.
• Proprietary reaction modelling algorithms enabling the fitting of both rate constants and rapid equilibrium constants in the same model.
• Support for both automated titration and manually prepared equilibrium sample measurements.
• Modelling of buffer reactions or pH variations can be included.
• A unique auxiliary parameter feature allowing the inclusion and optimisation of unusual parameters or parameter relationships to the fit.
• Support for known spectra.
• Singular Value decomposition and Evolving Factor Analysis for preliminary model free analysis of the data.
• A symbolic model editor allows direct input of chemical reaction schemes of virtually unlimited complexity.
