Since the introduction 10 years ago of the dissolution method, Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) became a widely applied and powerful technique to enhance nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals of low naturally abundant, insensitive nuclear spins for an ...
We explain how and under which conditions it is possible to obtain an efficient inversion of an entire sideband family of several hundred kHz using low-power, sideband-selective adiabatic pulses, and we illustrate with some experimental results how this fr ...
Slow dynamic processes, such as biomolecular folding/unfolding, macromolecular diffusion, etc., can be conveniently monitored by solution-state two-dimensional (2D) NMR spectroscopy, provided the inverse of their rate constants does not exceed the nuclear ...
Developments towards an understanding of the nature of conductance at the interface between two different metallic layers – ferromagnetic and non magnetic – as well as the discovery of giant magnetoresistance have stirred attention from both the scientific ...
Multiple refocusing cycles can be used to extract transverse relaxation rates, R2, while homonuclear scalar couplings do not interfere. In this work, I have demonstrated the usefulness of a hybrid sequence, which is a compromise between single and multiple ...
A disaccharide is a challenging case for high-resolution H-1 solid-state NMR because of the 24 distinct protons (14 aliphatic and 10 OH) having H-1 chemical shifts that all fall within a narrow range of approximately 3 to 7 ppm. High-resolution H-1 (500 MH ...
Major breakthroughs have recently been reported that can help overcome two inherent drawbacks of NMR: the lack of sensitivity and the limited memory of longitudinal magnetization. Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) couples nuclear spins to the large reserv ...
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can be applied in vivo to measure static or dynamic biochemical information, e.g., concentrations of metabolites and metabolic fluxes, using various nuclei such as 1H, 13C, 31P and 15N. The work of this thesis ...
A major challenge in cancer biology is to monitor and understand cancer metabolism in vivo with the goal of improved diagnosis and perhaps therapy. Because of the complexity of biochemical pathways, tracer methods are required for detecting specific enzyme ...
We employ triple-resonance vibrational overtone excitation to access quasibound states of water from several fully characterized bound states of the molecule. Comparison of the measured dissociation spectra allows a rigorous assignment of rotational quantu ...
