Classification and biomarker identification of prostate tissue from TRAMP mice with hyperpolarized C-SIRA.

Hyperpolarized C isotope resolved spectroscopy boosts NMR signal intensity, which improves signal detection and allows metabolic fluxes to be analyzed. Such hyperpolarized flux data may offer new approaches to tissue classification and biomarker identification that could be translated in vivo. Here we used hyperpolarized stable isotope resolved analysis (SIRA) to measure metabolite specific C isotopic enrichments in the central carbon metabolism of mouse prostate.

NMR-Based Metabolic Profiling of Edible Olives-Determination of Quality Parameters.

Edible olive drupes (from L.) are a high-value food commodity with an increasing production trend over the past two decades. In an attempt to prevent fraud issues and ensure quality, the International Olive Council (IOC) issued guidelines for their sensory evaluation.

Detecting acetylated aminoacids in blood serum using hyperpolarized C-Η-2D-NMR.

Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) can substantially enhance the sensitivity of NMR experiments. Among the implementations of DNP, ex-situ dissolution DNP (dDNP) achieves high signal enhancement levels owing to a combination of a large temperature factor between 1.4 and 300 K with the actual DNP effect in the solid state at 1.

Effects of applaud on the growth of silkworm (Lepidoptera: Bombycidae).

An experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect of the insecticide Applaud (buprofezin 25% WP) on the silkworm Bombyx mori (L.). This insecticide belongs to the class of insect growth regulators (IGR).
