Abstract
Diffusion-ordered spectroscopy (DOSY) is one of the most powerful methods for intact mixture analysis by NMR. However, the separation of overlapped spectra by current DOSY methods typically requires a minimum of 30% difference in diffusion coefficient. Here we present a new algorithm (OUTSCORE) that can improve the situation by almost an order of magnitude, allowing the unmixing of severely overlapped species of similar size, by combining least squares fitting with crosstalk minimisation, maximising spectral difference.
