title: Automated mode-of-action detection by metabolic profiling.
abstract: Rapid classification and identification of the mode-of-action of bioactive compounds applied to plants can be achieved by a robust and easy-to-use metabolic-profiling method. This method uses artificial neural network analysis of one-dimensional proton NMR spectra of aqueous plant extracts to rapidly classify changes in the total metabolic profile caused by application of crop protection chemicals.
