Photochemically induced dynamic nuclear polarisation (photo-CIDNP) in intact bacterial reaction centres has been observed by 13C-solid state NMR under continuous illumination with white light. Strong intensity enhancement of 13C NMR signals of the aromatic rings allows probing the electronic ground state of the two BChl cofactors of the special pair at the molecular scale with atomic selectivit...

Most in vivo 13C NMR spectroscopy studies in the brain have been performed using 1H decoupling during acquisition. Decoupling imposes significant constraints on the experimental setup (particularly for human studies at high magnetic field) in order to stay within safety limits for power deposition. We show here that incorporation of the 13C label from 13C-labeled glucose into brain amino acids ...

in this research, the tacticity and microstructure of polyvinyl chloride (pvc) were studied through back bone methylene and methine carbons and protons splitting by carbon (13c nmr), proton (1h nmr) and two-dimensional (2dnmr) nulear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in deuterated etrahydrofuran.polyvinyl chloride was synthesized by emulsion polymerization of vinyl chloride (vcm) under pressure t...

von Braun Cyanogen Bromide Reaction, Solasodine, 13C NMR Solasodine on reaction with BrCN yielded two isomeric cyanamides in a ratio of 3:1, which have been characterised as C-22 configurational isomers, N-cyanosolasodine (22 R, 25 R) I IA and N-cyanosolasodine (22 S, 25 Rj II B on the basis of HI and *3C NMR studies. The same reaction with piperidine, yielded its cyanamide, the 13C NMR of whic...

In the present study, we applied nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), as well as near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, to Jatropha curcas to fulfill two objectives: (1) to qualitatively examine the seeds stored at different conditions, and (2) to monitor the metabolism of J. curcas during its initial growth stage under stable-isotope-labeling condition (until 15 days after seeding). NIR spectra could ...

Glucose metabolism in five healthy subjects fasted for 16 h was measured with a combination of [U-13C]glucose and 2H2O tracers. Phenylbutyric acid was also provided to sample hepatic glutamine for the presence of 13C-isotopomers derived from the incorporation of [U-13C]glucose products into the hepatic Krebs cycle. Glucose production (GP) was quantified by 13C NMR analysis of the monoacetone de...

The local structure of carbon spheres obtained via the hydrothermal carbonization process is characterized by using a combination of advanced solid-state 13C NMR techniques. Glucose was chosen as the starting product because it offers the possibility of 13C isotopic enrichment and is regarded as a model compound for more complex polysaccharides and biomass, as reported in recent studies. A numb...
