Demystifying EPR: A Rookie Guide to the Application of Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy on Biomolecules

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, also known as Electron Spin Resonance(ESR) especially among physicists, is a strong and versatile spectroscopic method forinvestigation of paramagnetic systems, i.e. systems like free radicals and most transition metalions, which have unpaired electrons. The sensitivity and selectivity of EPR are notable andintriguing as compared to other spec...

Does Coherent Tunnelling of Positive Muons Cause Motional Narrowing?

Resonance lines broadened by dipolar interactions are a common phenomenon. The best studied cases are the nuclear magnetic resonance lines, for which Van Vleck's [ 1 ] classic analysis gives expressions for the moments of the shape. Recently work on muon spin resonance [2,3] stimulated questions of whether the linewidth depended on the number n of sites over which the muon moved coherently. Yao...

An application system for automation of constant-time radio frequency electron paramagnetic resonance imaging

A Windows based application system for data collection, Fourier reconstruction and analysis of pure phase encoded constant-time radio frequency electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) images, is described. The graphical user interface (GUI) of the system was written in MATLAB version 5.0, using its built-in GUI utilities. Design considerations of the application system included speed, flexibility...

Correction: Spin Biochemistry Modulates Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) Production by Radio Frequency Magnetic Fields

8 Muon spectroscopy

The elusiveness of reactive free radicals poses great challenges for their investigation per se in most processes in which they have an intermediary role; this is true particularly in heterogeneous media. There are, however, methods available for the detection of radicals with enormous sensitivity and specificity which are given the collective acronym mSR (MuSR). All the MuSR methods rely upon ...
