title: The use of laboratory microcomputers to hold NMR data bases.
abstract: Computer-based data bases are essential tools for NMR spectroscopists working with complex mixtures such as tissue extracts. Algorithms are described which are easily implemented on a small laboratory microcomputer and which can be used to make, edit, and query personalized laboratory data files. The data are stored in a series of small files accessed by pointers to overcome inherent redundancy in the information. Performance times are tabulated for a BBC Model B microcomputer working in the BASIC language and using 5.25-in. floppy discs as virtual memory.
