Low field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (LF-NMR) is a rich source of information for a wide range of samples types. These can be hard or soft solids, such as plastics or elastomers; bulk liquids or liquids absorbed in porous materials, and can come from biomaterials, biological tissues, archaeological artifacts, cultural heritage objects. LF-NMR instruments present a significant advance especially for in situ, ex situ and in vivo measurement of relaxation and diffusion.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how simvastatins and fenofibrates affect the femur bones of ovariectomized and non-ovariectomized Wistar albino rats using 1D 1H-NMR T2-distribution methods.
  • A total of 72 rats were divided into six groups and were analyzed at different time intervals after ovariectomy, with bone samples collected for analysis of moisture and pore distribution.
  • Results indicated that the effects of the drugs on bone structure varied significantly with treatment duration, emphasizing that treating healthy bones with these lipid-lowering medications is generally not advisable.
