Efficient Hyperpolarization of U- 13C-Glucose Using Narrow-Line UV-Generated Labile Free Radicals #DNPNMR

January 14, 2019 - DNP requires a paramagnetic polarizing agent. This is great for DNP but not so great for the NMR experiment, since the paramagnetic species often causes line broadening due to increase nuclear relaxation.
