Abstract

Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) is aiming to non-destructively and non-invasively characterize and quantify paramagnetic species such as superoxyde, nitric oxide, dioxygen, ascorbyle radical, or metallo-enzymes. Due to the growing interest in these molecules in biomedical science, EPR and EPR imaging are important tools that are used to obtain information on paramagnetic species, molecules which can not be directly studied using other conventional spectroscopy or imaging methods used in biology.
