Abstract

Metabolomics is well recognized technique for the analysis of biological system. Recently NMR is becoming an important tool of interest for researchers in the area of bimolecular analysis, especially for drug discovery. This technique is a significant step forward for identifying biomarkers, ligand interaction to the target, pathway recognition and metabolomic mapping. NMR based metabolomic is not only being used for the identification and structure elucidation of synthetic or natural compounds but also is considered as an imperative tool for biomolecular drug discovery. Significant advancements in methodological developments, software (including bioinformatics tools), and hardware (including instrumentation) is exploring new areas for industrial drug discovery. In this review, we discussed the importance of NMR technique in bio-molecular sciences.
