Influence of silica fume on the microstructure of cement pastes: New insights from 1H NMR relaxometry
a r t i c l e i n f o Keywords: 1 H NMR (B) Silica fume (D) C–S–H composition (B) Density (B) 1 H NMR has been used to characterise white Portland cement paste incorporating 10 wt.% of silica fume. Samples were measured sealed throughout the hydration without sample drying. Paste compositions and C–S–H characteristics are calculated based on 1 H NMR signal intensities and relaxation analysis. T...
متن کاملNanosecond Time Scale Motions in Proteins Revealed by High-Resolution NMR Relaxometry
Understanding the molecular determinants underlying protein function requires the characterization of both structure and dynamics at atomic resolution. Nuclear relaxation rates allow a precise characterization of protein dynamics at the Larmor frequencies of spins. This usually limits the sampling of motions to a narrow range of frequencies corresponding to high magnetic fields. At lower fields...
متن کاملLocalized proton NMR spectroscopy using stimulated echoes: applications to human skeletal muscle in vivo.
Localized proton NMR spectroscopy using stimulated echoes (STEAM) has been used to study metabolites in different proximal skeletal muscles of normal volunteers at rest. Single scan water-suppressed proton NMR spectra obtained at 1.5 and 2.0 T (Siemens Magnetom) from a 64-ml volume-of-interest (VOI) yield resonances due to triglycerides, phosphocreatine plus a minor contribution from creatine, ...
متن کاملFunctional assessment of skeletal muscle in mice lacking myostatin by multiparametric functional (mpf-)NMR in vivo
INTRODUCTION: Myostatin, an endogenous TGF-[beta] growth factor, negatively regulates muscle growth [1]. Deletion of the myostatin gene results in spectacular increase in muscle mass, and has opened the path to therapeutic approaches [2]. Yet improvement in muscle strength does not necessarily match the observed increase in muscle mass [3]. If function is to be preserved in hypertrophic muscle,...
متن کاملIn vivo dynamics of skeletal muscle Dystrophin in zebrafish embryos revealed by improved FRAP analysis
Dystrophin forms an essential link between sarcolemma and cytoskeleton, perturbation of which causes muscular dystrophy. We analysed Dystrophin binding dynamics in vivo for the first time. Within maturing fibres of host zebrafish embryos, our analysis reveals a pool of diffusible Dystrophin and complexes bound at the fibre membrane. Combining modelling, an improved FRAP methodology and direct s...
