  • The effect of structured water by dissolution of xenon was examined from the view point of the suppression of both browning and respiratory metabolism of broccoli. The structured water is formed duet to hydrophobic interaction when xenon gas dissolves into water. NMR measurements were carried out to determine proton spin-spin relaxation time, T2, for water. There was a difference in proton T2 between distilled water and structured water. This can be interpreted as the change of water structure. Fro the broccoli cut in half stored for 16 days at 279K, the section color did not change appreciably for the sample whose water was structured by dissolution of xenon whose initial partial pressure was 0.39MPa. In contrast to this, the browning of section surface was observed for the sample stored under the condition of nitrogen gas at the same partial pressure as xenon and for the sample stored under atmospheric condition . These results led to the conclusion that the suppression of b owning by oxidation was due to structured water but not to applied pressure. Adding to this, the water structured by xenon has resulted in suppression of respiratory metabolism of broccoli.

  • Ln$(NO_3)_3$/DMF 상자성 용액의 양성자 선-나비와 화학적이동을 240 K부터 380 K 사이에서 측정하였다. 이들 데이터로부터 DMF 분자의 CHO기에 대한 배위구 교환속도와 열역학 교환파라미터를 추출하였다. 1/$T_2$${\Dellta}{\omega}$ 데이터의 온도의존성을 자세하게 분석하고 고찰하여 결과를 정리하였다. 분석의 결과를 살펴보면 짝짓지 않은 전자 스핀이 몇몇 $Ln^{3+}$이온에서 첫 배위구를 넘어 퍼지면서 bulk 용매의 DMF 분자로 스칼라이완의 기여를 제공하는 것 같다.

  • An interesting recent application of intermolecular NOE experiment is the saturation transfer difference NMR(STD-NMR) method that is useful in screening compound libraries to identify bio-active ligands. This technique also identifies the group epitopes of the bound ligand in a reversibly forming protein-ligand complex. We present here a complete relaxation and conformational exchange matrix (CORCEMA) theory (Moseley et al., J. Magn. Reson. B, 108, 243-261 (1995)) applicable for the STD-NMR experiment. Using some ideal model systems we have analyzed the factors that influence the STD intensity changes in the ligand proton NMR spectrum when the resonances from some protons on the receptor protein are saturated. These factors will be discussed and some examples of its application in some model systems will be presented. This CORCEMA theory for STD-NMR and the associated algorithm are useful in a quantitative interpretation of the STD-NMR effects, and are likely to be useful in structure-based drug design efforts. They are also useful in a quantitative characterization of protein-protein (or protein-nucleic acid) contact surfaces from an intermolecular cross-saturation NMR experiment.

  • [ $^1H$ ] nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments have been performed at 30 - 300 K and 7 T to investigate dynamics of hydrogen bond network in the single crystal $(NH_4)_3H(SO_4)_2$. The two proton sites, ammonium proton and hydrogen-bond proton, are identified from the $^1H$ NMR MAS spectrum at 340 K. As temperature decreases, the $^1H$ NMR spectrum shifts to the higher frequency side with a larger linewidth. The spectrum at 65 K shows a distinctive change in line shape toward the ferroelectric transition at 63 K. The measured values of $T_1$ for ammonium and hydrogen-bond protons are similar in the whole range of temperature. $T_1$ of $^1H$ NMR shows a gradual decrease down to 120 K and starts to steeply increase below 100 K. Then $T_1$ shows abrupt decrease below 70 K with a sharp minimum at 63 K, where the ferroelectric transition occurs. This temperature dependence of spectrum and $T_1$ clearly prove that the large change in the dynamics of hydrogen bond network is associated with the ferroelectric phase transition at 63 K.

  • Purpose : To evaluate the effect of rotational correlation time (${\tau}_R$) and the possible related changes of other parameters, ${\tau}_M,{\;}{\tau}_S,{\;}and{\;}(\tau}_V$ of gadolinium (Gd) chelate on T1 relaxation enhancement in two pool model. Materials and Methods : The NMRD (Nuclear Magnetic Relaxation Dispersion) profiles were simulated from 0.02 MHz to 800 MHz proton Larmor frequency for different values of rotational correlation times based on Solomon-Bloembergen equation for inner-sphere relaxation enhancement. To include both unbound pool (pool A) and bound pool (pool B), the relaxivity was divided by contribution from unbound pool and bound pool. The rotational correlation time for pool A was fixed at the value of 0.1 ns, which is a typical value for low molecular weight complexes such as Gd-DTPA in solution and ${\tau}_R$ for pool B was changed from 0.1 ns to 20 ns to allow the slower rotation by binding to macromolecule. The fractional factor of was also adjusted from 0 to 1.0 to simulate different binding ratios to macromolecule. Since the binding of Gd-chelate to macromolecule cab alter the electronic environment of Gd ion and also the degree of bulk water access to hydration site of Gd-chelate, the effects of these parameters were also included. Results : The result shows that low field profiles, ranged from 0.02 to 40 MHz, and dominated by contribution from bound pool, which is bound to macromolecule regardless of binding ratios. In addition, as more Gd-chelate bound to macromolecule, sharp increase of relaxivity at higher field occurs. The NMRD profiles for different values of ${\tau}_S$ show the enormous increase of low field profile whereas relaxivity at high field is not affected by ${\tau}_S$. On the other hand, the change in ${\tau}$V does not affect low field profile but strongly in fluences on both inflection fie이 and the maximum relaxivity value. The results shows a fluences on both inflection field and the maximum relaxivity value. The results shows a parabolic dependence of relaxivity on ${\tau}_M$. Conclusion : Binding of Gd-chelate to a macromolecule causes slower rotational tumbling of Gd-chelate and would result in relaxation enhancement, especially in clinical imaging field. However, binding to macromolecule can change water enchange rate (${\tau}_M$) and electronic relaxation ($T_le$) vis structural deformation of electron environment and the access of bulk water to hydration site of metal-chelate. The clinical utilities of Gd-chelate bound to macromolecule are the less dose requirement, the tissue specificity, and the better perfusion and intravascular agents.

  • 자화전이영상 (MTI)은 무릎의 연골조직, 활액, 연대 등에 있는 거대분자에 붙어 분자운동에 제한을 받은 수소와 비교적 자유로운 물 분자의 수소가 두 가지 자화 상태로 서로 교환되고 있는 상태에서 한쪽 자화상태를 RF 펄스를 사용하여 포화시키면 다른 자화 상태가 교환 상황에 따라 그 신호강도가 달라지면서 영상의 대조도를 이룬다. 교차이완은 수소의 T2 이완시간이 다르면서 생기는 두 스핀 풀로 모델화하여 물 분자와 거대분자 사이의 쌍극자들의 상호교환 뿐만 아니라 물분자와 거대분자의 수소 화학교환으로 설명된다. 이에 의학영상에서 가장 필수적 요소인 신호강도와 대조도를 조절하는 능력으로서 양성자 밀도와 T2 강조 무릎영상을 획득하여 비정상적 조직과 그 변화 위에 시퀀스와 더불어 무릎 조인트의 중간신호들에 의해 무릎 연골주위의 다른 조직과의 신호강도 차이를 더욱 높이기도 한다. 또한 지방억제 기술은 조직 대조도를 증대시키고 화학전이 인공물을 제거할 뿐 아니라 움직임과 관련한 고스트 인공물을 감소시킨다. 이와 같은 지방 포화억제는 위상감각 방법 (Phase Sensitive Method)에서 물과 지방의 세차운동 주파수에 차이를 나타낸다. 본 연구에서 위상감각 방법은 Larmor 주파수 차이를 직접 사용하기 보다는 그 주파수 차이결과를 축적하여 생기는 위상 차이를 보고자 하였다. 자화전이영상이 어떻게 작동하는가는 무릎조직의 자화전이(MT)에 대한 정량적 모델로 유도되는 임상적 증거에서 주어지지만 그 자화전이 효과를 설명하는 수학적 공식화는 전방 십자형 인대 (Anterior Cruciate Ligament)파열과 관절간연골 파열과 같은 무릎관절질환을 평가하는 데 적용하였고, 자화전이 포화 효과의 계산은 MT 펄스에 의한 신호강도에 상대적 감소를 정량적으로 측정하는 자화전이률에 의해 주어졌다.糖) 및 이성화당(異性化糖)의 개발생산(開發生産)이 시급(時急)하며 이런 감미원(甘味源) 생산공장(生産工場)의 대규모화(大規模化)로 경제적(經濟的) 양산(量産)을 서둘러야 될 줄 생각(生覺)한다. 우선적(優先的)으로 소요(所要)의 효소생산(酵素生産)에 대(對)한 개발연구(開發硏究)가 앞서야 하며, 이어서 전분(澱粉)으로부터 이성화당(異性化糖)에 이르기까지 단계적(段階的) 효소처리공정(酵素處理工程)의 확립(確立)과 새로운 공정(工程)의 개발연구(開發硏究)가 이루어져야 하겠다. 나아가서 보다 더 경제적(經濟的) 감미료(甘味料)의 생산(生産)과 생산공정(生産工程)의 능율화(能率化)를 위(爲)하여 전분당화(澱粉糖化) 및 이성화(異性化) 공정(工程)의 연속화(連續化)가 필연적(必然的)이며, 이에 소요(所要) 및 불용성(不溶性) 효소(酵素)의 생산공정(生産工程)도 연구(硏究)되어야 한다.>$16.8{\sim}30.1$ kcal/mole의 범위 안에 있으며 ginsenoside-Re 및 $-Rg_1$$ginsenoside-Rb_1,\;-Rb_2$, -Rc 및 -Rd 보다 훨씬 높으므로 troil saponin이 diol saponin보다 온도(溫度)의 영향(影響)을 더 많이 받고 있었다. 마. total ginsenosides의 분해반응시(分解反應時)의 활성화(活性化)에너지($E_a$)는 17.7kcal/mole이었고 분해속도상수(分解速度常數)의 온도의존성(溫度依存性)은 $k=4.574{\times}10^8{\exp}(-8898.8/T)$의 관계식(關係式)으로 표시(表示)할 수 있다rc}C,\;30^{\circ}C,\;45^{\circ}C$ 별로 각 fine spirit에 oak chip을 넣고 숙성시킨

  • In this study, transverse relaxation time (T2) measurement and the evaluation of the characteristics of the spectral peak related to stomach tissue metabolites were performed using ex vivo proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) at 1.5-T MRI/S instruments. Thirty-two gastric tissues resected from 12 patients during gastric cancer surgery, of which 19 were normal tissue and 13 were cancerous tissue, were used to measure the $T_2$ of the magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) peaks. The volume of interest data results from the MRSI measurements were extracted from the proper muscle (MUS) layer and the composite mucosa/submucosa (MC/SMC) layer and were statistically analyzed. MR spectra were acquired using the chemical shift imaging (CSI) point resolved spectroscopy (CSI-PRESS) technique with the parameters of pulse repetition time (TR) and echo times (TE) TR/(TE1,TE2)=1500 msec/(35 msec, 144 msec), matrix $size=24{\times}24$, NA=1, and voxel $size=2.2{\times}2.2{\times}4mm^3$. In conclusion, the measured $T_2$ of the metabolite peaks, such as choline (3.21ppm) and lipid (1.33ppm), were significantly decreased (p<0.01 and p<0.05, respectively) in the cancerous stomach tissue.

  • In order to obtain information on the structural geometry of $NH_4HSeO_4$ near the phase transition temperature, the spectrum and spin-lattice relaxation time in the rotating frame $T_{1{\rho}}$ for the ammonium and hydrogen-bond protons were investigated through $^1H$ MAS NMR. $T_{1{\rho}}$ for the hydrogen-bond protons abruptly decreased at high temperature and it is associated with the change in the structural geometry in $O-H{\cdots}O$ bonds. This mobility of the hydrogen-bond protons may be the main reason for the high conductivity.

  • Recent development of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment enables interventional radiology (IVR) as diagnosis and treatment under MRI usage. In this paper, a new methodology for magnetic resonance (MR) scanner to apply not only diagnostic equipment but for treatment one is discussed. The temperature measuring procedure under MR is to measure phase shift of $T_1$, which is the longitudinal relaxation time of proton, for the position inside a sample material with the application of pulsed RF for heating inside the sample as artificial dielectrics. The result shows the possibility to apply MR as temperature measuring equipment and as a heating equipment for applying such as hyperthermia heating modality.
