Abstract

A novel interpretation of EPR spectra of the TEMPO radical in water-lipid media in terms of the model of two independent movements of nitroxyl is presented. A program of the theoretical modeling of EPR spectra has been developed, and the results of its operation have been demonstrated by an example of well known sets of experimental EPR spectra in various phospholipid media and membranes.
