Rock powder of dolomite samples from the Renison mine area of Tasmania, Australia were analyzed by electron paramagnentic resonance spectroscopy (EPR), Atomic Absorption and Mass Spectrometer to identify alteration related to mineralisation. The least-altered dolomite samples, which are not effected by circulation of diagenetic and hydrothermal fluids are characterised by low Mn and Fe and ...

Pulse electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) is gaining increasing importance in structural biology. The PELDOR (pulsed electron-electron double resonance) method allows extracting distance information on the nanometer scale. Here, we demonstrate the efficient extraction of distances from multimeric systems such as membrane-embedded ion channels where data analysis is commonly hindered by multi-...

Batteries for electrical storage are central to any future alternative energy paradigm. The ability to probe the redox mechanisms occurring at electrodes during their operation is essential to improve battery performances. Here we present the first report on Electron Paramagnetic Resonance operando spectroscopy and in situ imaging of a Li-ion battery using Li2Ru0.75Sn0.25O3, a high-capacity (>2...

A significant problem with paramagnetic tags attached to proteins and nucleic acids is their conformational mobility. Each tag is statistically distributed within a volume between 5 and 10 Angstroms across; structural biology conclusions from NMR and EPR work are necessarily diluted by this uncertainty. The problem is solved in electron spin resonance, but remains open in the other major branch...

Electron paramagnetic resonance in ac dissipation was observed due to the Cooper pairs breaking up to their quasiparticle state. This phenomenon is the result of a flux motion on a pinning centers in high temperature superconducting materials. The detection of ac dissipation was performed in a low ac field (15 and 22 MHz) as well as in microwave range. Vortex motion hysteresis loop with magneti...

The EPR-detectable (24.2 K) electron acceptors of the DPNH-ubiquinone reductase segment of the electron transfer system of beef heart mitochondria were studied in preparations of varying complexity. Four distinct iron-sulfur centers associated with this segment of the electron transfer system were identified. They occur in approximately equal concentrations, and this concentration approximates ...

Both electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) spectroscopies are extremely powerful and versatile methods for the characterisation of paramagnetic systems in biology, chemistry, and physics. However, by comparison to EPR, ENDOR remains a less widely used technique. In this tutorial review the basic principles of continuous wave ENDOR are described. The...

A chirality-sensitive effect induced by antisymmetric hyperfine coupling, which lifts the intrinsic insensitivity of electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy to molecular chirality, is described.

AIM Superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) may play an important role in nanomedicine by serving as drug carriers and imaging agents. In this study, we present the biodistribution and pharmacokinetic properties of SPIONs using a new detection method, particle electron paramagnetic resonance (pEPR). MATERIALS & METHODS The pEPR technique is based on a low-field and low-frequency e...
