Water Behavior in Bacterial Spores by Deuterium NMR Spectroscopy
Dormant bacterial spores are able to survive long periods of time without nutrients, withstand harsh environmental conditions, and germinate into metabolically active bacteria when conditions are favorable. Numerous factors influence this hardiness, including the spore structure and the presence of compounds to protect DNA from damage. It is known that the water content of the spore core plays ...
متن کاملEfficient deuterium-carbon REDOR NMR spectroscopy.
Phase modulated pulses for deuterium recoupling in (2)H-(13)C REDOR NMR spectroscopy have been introduced to improve dephasing of the detected (13)C nuclei. The deuterium inversion properties of phase modulated recoupling pulses have been studied experimentally on l-alanine-2-d(1) and theoretically using average Hamiltonian theory and exact simulations of the equation of motion of the density m...
متن کاملDifferentiating bacterial spores from hoax materials by Raman Spectroscopy
The bioterrorism of October 2001 caused by the distribution of anthrax through the U.S. postal system was compounded by the significant delay associated with positive identification of the Bacillus anthracis spores and the unknown extent of their distribution along the eastern seaboard. In the ensuing two years, literally thousands of hoaxes, letters containing harmless powders, have been maile...
متن کاملTethered or adsorbed supported lipid bilayers in nanotubes characterized by deuterium magic angle spinning NMR spectroscopy.
2H solid-state NMR experiments were performed under magic angle spinning on lipid bilayers oriented into nanotubes arrays, as a new method to assess the geometrical arrangement of the lipids. Orientational information is obtained from the intensities of the spinning sidebands. The lipid bilayers are formed by fusion of small unilamellar vesicles of DMPC-d54 inside a nanoporous anodic aluminum o...
متن کاملDynamic structure of membranes by deuterium NMR.
Progress in our understanding of the dynamic structure of membrane lipids and proteins has recently been made possible by the advent of high-field "solid-state" nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic studies of specifically deuterium-labeled systems. Major features of lipid and protein dynamics have been deduced.
