This presentation discusses the application of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. NMR is an analytical technique used to determine the content, purity, and molecular structure of samples. It has various applications in fields like medicine, materials science, pharmaceutical research, and structural biology. In medicine, NMR is used for imaging tissues and organs in the brain, abdomen, kidneys, pelvis, heart, and musculoskeletal system. It is also used to study protein folding, ionization states, hydration, and metabolite analysis. In pharmaceutical research, NMR aids in structural determination, studying protein-ligand interactions, and structure-activity relationships, supporting drug discovery.

3. Definition:
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance is a branch of spectroscopy that deals
with the phenomenon found in assemblies of large number of nuclei of
atoms that possess both magnetic moments and angular
momentum is subjected to external magnetic field.
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is an analytical
chemistry technique used in quality control and reserach for
determining the content and purity of a sample as well as its molecular
structure.

Drug Discovery Research:
NMR has become the single most powerful form of spectroscopy in both
chemistry and structural biology. The recent technical advances have remarkably
increased the range of applications for NMR in the study of proteinligand
interactions.
These form the basis for its most exciting uses in the drug discovery process,
which range from the simple identification of whether a compound (or a
component of a mixture) binds to a given protein, through to the determination
of the full three-dimensional structure of the complex, with all the information
this yields for structure-based drug design .
