M. Biesemans et al., H-1 EDITING OF 2-DEUTERATED EXOGENOUS AND NATURAL ENDOGENOUS D-GLUCOSE IN BIOLOGICAL SAMPLES, Magnetic resonance in medicine, 30(1), 1993, pp. 120-123
A spin-echo based H-1 homonuclear pulse sequence, enabling the selecti
ve editing of homonuclear first-order J-multiplet types, is presented
and analyzed. Its effectiveness in quantification applications is asse
ssed. Its potential usefulness in the quantitative distinction between
2-deuterated and natural D-glucose in biological samples is briefly d
iscussed, with emphasis on studies of hexose metabolism conducted in v
itro.
