High-Field EPR and ENDOR on Bioorganic Systems

  • Chapter
EMR of Paramagnetic Molecules

Part of the book series: Biological Magnetic Resonance ((BIMR,volume 13))

Abstract

Over the last 10 to 20 years NMR spectroscopy has advanced tremendously by employing sophisticated pulsed radio-frequency irradiation schemes and by exposing the sample to the strong magnetic fields attainable in superconducting magnets. Pulsing the rf field led to Fourier transform and two-dimensional correlation NMR; increasing B 0 and the rf frequency led to improved spectral resolution and sensitivity. Both developments were of decisive importance for successful applications of NMR to biological systems (Ernst et al., 1987; Wüthrich, 1986).
