A new application of X-band electron spin resonance (ESR) is demonstrated for in vivo investigations on living mice. It is the first report on in vivo detection, identification, and localization of a free radical after uptake in the body of a living mammal by inhalation. The volatile di-tert-butyl-nitroxyl (DTBN) has been used as a suitable spin probe. After inhalation of DTBN, a superimposed ESR spectrum consisting of a polar (g = 2.0057; a = 1.65 mT) and a nonpolar paramagnetic species (g = 2.0061; a = 1.51 mT) was detected in mice tails. Collected blood exhibits only the polar spectrum. The decay of signals after removing of the DTBN-soaked swab follows first-order kinetics with k = 0.08 min-1.
展示了X波段电子自旋共振(ESR)在对活体小鼠进行体内研究中的一种新应用。这是关于通过吸入在活体哺乳动物体内摄取自由基后进行体内检测、鉴定和定位的首次报告。挥发性二叔丁基硝基氧(DTBN)已被用作合适的自旋探针。吸入DTBN后,在小鼠尾巴中检测到由极性(g = 2.0057;a = 1.65 mT)和顺磁性非极性物质(g = 2.0061;a = 1.51 mT)组成的叠加ESR谱。采集的血液仅显示极性谱。去除浸泡有DTBN的棉签后信号的衰减遵循一级动力学,k = 0.08 min-1。
