5. Development of Novel Diffusion NMR Methods : Preclinical Applications in Colloidal Model Systems
Abstract : NMR is a powerful non-invasive technique utilizing radiofrequency and gradient pulses to manipulate the spinsof atomic nuclei. In particular, diffusion NMR uses strong magnetic field gradients to label the positions of spins allowing for the measurement of translational motion of molecules in liquids. READ MORE
