چکیده
Figure 2. (A) bp-s-PFG experiments for both components of the emulsion. Note that the signal decay is isotropic for both. (B) Angular bpd-PFG experiments with tm=0 ms, reveals the presence of μA for both compartments. (C) Angular bp-d-PFG experiments with long tm= reveals that toluene is diffusing within spheres, and the presence of csA for water, demonstrating that the water molecules are trapped in randomly oriented anisotropic compartments. (D) Light microscopy of the emulsion validates the angular bp-d-PFG results. Figure 1. (A, B) Microscopy of yeast cells and randomly oriented cylinders (C, D) Bp-s-PFG experiments showing the lack of eA in both specimens. (E, F) Angular bp-d-PFG experiments at long tm showing that yeast cells are spherical (no csA) while csA exists for the phantom, demonstrating that the compartments are randomly oriented anisotropic compartments.

Accurate noninvasive measurement of cell size and compartment shape anisotropy in yeast cells using double-pulsed field gradient MR.
The accurate characterization of pore morphology is of great interest in a wide range of scientific disciplines. Conventional single-pulsed field gradient (s-PFG) diffusion MR can yield compartmental size and shape only when compartments are coherently ordered using q-space approaches that necessitate strong gradients. However, double-PFG (d-PFG) methodology can provide novel microstructural in...
متن کاملCompartment shape anisotropy (CSA) revealed by double pulsed field gradient MR.
The multiple scattering extensions of the pulsed field gradient (PFG) experiments can be used to characterize restriction-induced anisotropy at different length scales. In double-PFG acquisitions that involve two pairs of diffusion gradient pulses, the dependence of the MR signal attenuation on the angle between the two gradients is a signature of restriction that can be observed even at low gr...
