ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00216-007-1629-9 | Abstract: | Ex-vivo and in-vitro nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy techniques have been used for studying chemical metabolites in surgically resected specimens of human neoplasms, and may provide complementary information to in-vivo whole-body magnetic-resonance spectroscopy (MRS). We describe an ex-vivo NMR in water method for measurement of water-soluble metabolites in unprocessed normal rat brain tissue and human intracranial neoplasms. The NMR spectra obtained using the method described here were comparable to those obtained using high-resolution magic-angle spinning (HRMAS) NMR methods, with good correlation in metabolite concentrations relative to creatine (r 2 = 0.7635). Improved spectral resolution and baseline were noted compared to HRMAS, but macromolecule resonances were not detected. Ex-vivo NMR of unprocessed tissue in water is rapid and technically simple to perform, and has the potential to be used for direct assessment of intracranial neoplasms. © 2007 Springer-Verlag. | Source Title: | Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/100659 | ISSN: | 16182642 | DOI: | 10.1007/s00216-007-1629-9 |
