Abstract

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) has long been used as an analytical tool by chemists and physicists in the study of inter- and intramolecular interactions in all phases of matter. The powerful analytical techniques developed and refined over many years are now finding increasing application in the biological and medical sciences1.
