NMR spectroscopy of saccharide-doped PAGAT dosimeters

PAGAT gel dosimeters for dose distribution measurements in the vicinity of high-density implants: A preliminary study

This work examined the suitability of the PAGAT gel dosimeter for use in dose distribution measurements around high-density implants. An assessment of the gels reactivity with various metals was performed and no corrosive effects were observed. An artefact reduction technique was also investigated in order to minimise scattering of the laser light in the optical CT scans. The potential for atte...

Informing saccharide structural NMR studies with density functional theory calculations.

Density functional theory (DFT) is a powerful computational tool to enable structural interpretations of NMR spin-spin coupling constants ( J-couplings) in saccharides, including the abundant (1)H-(1)H ( JHH), (13)C-(1)H ( JCH), and (13)C-(13)C ( JCC) values that exist for coupling pathways comprised of 1-4 bonds. The multiple hydroxyl groups in saccharides, with their attendant lone-pair orbit...

NMR Spectroscopy of Polymers

molecular tumbling causes that anisotropy of nuclear interaction now plays dominant role in the appearance of NMR spectra. Frankly speaking the NMR signals are very broad and spectra become featureless. In general missing isotropic tumbling leads to severe broadening of the detected signals. The lack of resolution, however; does not mean the absence of structure information, it rather reflects ...

NMR-Spectroscopy in Drug Analysis Quantitative NMR Spectroscopy

Structural investigation of aluminium doped ZnO nanoparticles by solid-state NMR spectroscopy.

The electrical conductivity of aluminium doped zinc oxide (AZO, ZnO:Al) materials depends on doping induced defects and grain structure. This study aims at relating macroscopic electrical conductivity of AZO nanoparticles with their atomic structure, which is non-trivial because the derived materials are heavily disordered and heterogeneous in nature. For this purpose we synthesized AZO nanopar...
