Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization of deuterated molecules enhanced by cross-polarization

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Estel Canet Martinez, Daniel Abergel, Sina Marhabaie, Matthias Weller

We present novel means to hyperpolarize deuterium nuclei in (CD2)-C-13 groups at cryogenic temperatures. The method is based on cross-polarization from H-1 to C-13 and does not require any radio-frequency fields applied to the deuterium nuclei. After rapid ...

Highly Repeatable Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization for Heteronuclear NMR Metabolomics

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Xiao Ji

At natural C-13 abundance, metabolomics based on heteronuclear NMR is limited by sensitivity. We have recently demonstrated how hyperpolarization by dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) assisted by cross-polarization (CP) provides a reliable wa ...

Novel Instrumentation and Methods for Chemical Applications of Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization

Jonas Milani

One of the major disadvantages of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is its low sensitivity, mainly due to a very low spin polarization. Since 2003, Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (D-DNP) provides a way of overcoming this drawback in solution by in ...

Filterable Agents for Hyperpolarization of Water, Metabolites, and Proteins

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Pascal Miéville, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Florian Patrick Marie Daniel De la Barre De Nanteuil, Estel Canet Martinez, Xiao Ji, Robert Konrat

Hyperpolarization is generated by dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (d-DNP) using a polymer-based polarizing agent dubbed FLAP (filterable labeled agents for polarization). It consists of a thermo-responsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide), also known a ...

Hyperpolarized Water to Study Protein-Ligand Interactions

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Quentin Chappuis

The affinity between a chosen target protein and small molecules is a key aspect of drug discovery. Screening by popular NMR methods such as Water-LOGSY suffers from low sensitivity and from false positives caused by aggregated or denatured proteins. This ...

Spin Noise Detection of Nuclear Hyperpolarization at 1.2K

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud

We report proton spin noise spectra of a hyperpolarized solid sample of commonly used DNP (dynamic nuclear polarization) juice containing TEMPOL (4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine N-oxide) and irradiated by a microwave field at a temperature of 1.2K ...

A magnetic tunnel to shelter hyperpolarized fluids

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Pascal Miéville, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Roger Mottier

To shield solutions carrying hyperpolarized nuclear magnetization from rapid relaxation during transfer through low fields, the transfer duct can be threaded through an array of permanent magnets. The advantages are illustrated for solutions containing hyp ...

Hyperpolarized para-Ethanol

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Daniele Mammoli

We show that an imbalance between the populations of singlet (S) and triplet (T) states in pairs of magnetically equivalent spins can be generated by dissolution dynamic nudear polarization: In partly deuterated ethanol ((CD3CH2OD)-C-13), this T/S imbalanc ...

Challenges in preparing, preserving and detecting para-water in bulk: overcoming proton exchange and other hurdles

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Diego Carnevale, Nicola Salvi, Daniele Mammoli, Roberto Buratto, Estel Canet Martinez

Para-water is an analogue of para-hydrogen, where the two proton spins are in a quantum state that is antisymmetric under permutation, also known as singlet state. The populations of the nuclear spin states in para-water are believed to have long lifetimes ...

Measuring absolute spin polarization in dissolution-DNP by Spin PolarimetrY Magnetic Resonance (SPY-MR)

Geoffrey Bodenhausen, Aurélien Bornet, Sami Jannin, Jonas Milani, Basile Vuichoud, Quentin Chappuis

Dynamic nuclear polarization at 1.2 K and 6.7 T allows one to achieve spin temperatures on the order of a few millikelvin, so that the high-temperature approximation (Delta E < kT) is violated for the nuclear Zeeman interaction Delta E = gamma B(0)h/(2 pi) ...
