TLDR
Proton and carbon-13 nmr spectra of unsonicated lipid bilayers and biological membranes are generally dominated by strong proton-proton and proton–carbon dipolar interactions and are rather difficult to analyse.Abstract:
Proton and carbon-13 nmr spectra of unsonicated lipid bilayers and biological membranes are generally dominated by strong proton–proton and proton–carbon dipolar interactions. As a result the spectra contain a large number of overlapping resonances and are rather difficult to analyse. Nevertheless, important information on the structure and dynamic behaviour of lipid systems has been provided by these techniques (Wennerstrom & Lindblom, 1977).read more

Inhomogeneous magnetization transfer imaging: Concepts and directions for further development

TL;DR: Inhomogeneous magnetization transfer (ihMT) imaging as discussed by the authors is a refinement of MT imaging that isolates the MT signal dependence on dipolar order relaxation times within motion-constrained molecules.

Water/oil interfacial tension reduction - an interfacial entropy driven process.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results from molecular dynamics simulations revealing the specific role surfactants play in interfacial tension (IFT) and find that, in addition to reducing direct contact between the two fluids, surfactant serve to increase the disorder at the interface (related to interfacial entropy) and consequently reduce the water/oil IFT.

TL;DR: Investigation of the immobilization of the recoverin myristoyl moiety in the presence of phosphocholine bilayers using 2H solid-state NMR spectroscopy shows that an optimal fluidity is required for recoverin immobilization.

Principles of magnetic resonance
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of changing the precession frequency of the magnetic field has been studied using NMR to study rate properties. But the effect is limited to the case of double and double resonance.
