Improvements in the information content of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) images have recently been sought through the development of new contrast mechanisms for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and NMR microscopy. This ...

The ultrasonic speed and attenuation coefficient of three muscle samples were measured in-vitro as a function of temperature and frequency. The sarcomere length of each of these samples was also determined. The three muscle ...

Hydroperoxide is required to activate prostaglandin endoperoxide synthase (PES) cyclooxygenase by formation of an enzyme-radical species (derived from a PES peroxidase intermediate), and is generated by the cyclooxygenase ...

This thesis aims to demonstrate the usefulness of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy in understanding normal human placental and uterine metabolism as well as its application in the study of gestational and gynecological ...
