Such information can be used to improve the design of 3D-printed supports as well as to validate and improve cell culture protocols.<\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('78','tp_abstract')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"tp_links\" id=\"tp_links_78\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_links_entry\"><ul class=\"tp_pub_list\"><li><i class=\"fas fa-globe\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/D4RA05362A\" title=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/D4RA05362A\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/D4RA05362A<\/a><\/li><li><i class=\"ai ai-doi\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"https:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/D4RA05362A\" title=\"Follow DOI:10.1039\/D4RA05362A\" target=\"_blank\">doi:10.1039\/D4RA05362A<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('78','tp_links')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/td><\/tr><tr class=\"tp_publication_simple tp_publication_simple_article\"><td class=\"tp_pub_number_simple\">72.<\/td><td class=\"tp_pub_info_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_author_simple\">Thomas B.

The potential for this method to characterize the morphological properties of macroporous media is demonstrated, and future \u201creal-world\u201d applications are discussed.<\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('66','tp_abstract')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"tp_links\" id=\"tp_links_66\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_links_entry\"><ul class=\"tp_pub_list\"><li><i class=\"fas fa-globe\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/9781788019972-00280\" title=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/9781788019972-00280\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/9781788019972-00280<\/a><\/li><li><i class=\"ai ai-doi\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"https:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/9781788019972-00280\" title=\"Follow DOI:10.1039\/9781788019972-00280\" target=\"_blank\">doi:10.1039\/9781788019972-00280<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('66','tp_links')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/td><\/tr><tr class=\"tp_publication_simple tp_publication_simple_incollection\"><td class=\"tp_pub_number_simple\">63.<\/td><td class=\"tp_pub_info_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_author_simple\">Allan M Torres, Giuseppe Pileio, William S Price<\/span>: <span class=\"tp_pub_title_simple\"><a class=\"tp_title_link\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('67','tp_links')\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Chapter 16 Q-space Singlet NMR<\/a><\/span>. <span class=\"tp_pub_additional_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_in\">In: <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_booktitle\">Long-lived Nuclear Spin Order: Theory and Applications, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_pages\">pp. 302-319, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_publisher\">The Royal Society of Chemistry, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_year\">2020<\/span>, <span class=\"tp_pub_additional_isbn\">ISBN: 978-1-78801-568-4<\/span>.<\/span> <span class=\"tp_pub_menu_simple\">(Type: <span class=\"tp_pub_type tp_  incollection\">Book Section<\/span> | <span class=\"tp_abstract_link\"><a id=\"tp_abstract_sh_67\" class=\"tp_show\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('67','tp_abstract')\" title=\"Show abstract\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Abstract<\/a><\/span> | <span class=\"tp_resource_link\"><a id=\"tp_links_sh_67\" class=\"tp_show\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('67','tp_links')\" title=\"Show links and resources\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Links<\/a><\/span>)<\/span><div class=\"tp_bibtex\" id=\"tp_bibtex_67\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_bibtex_entry\"><pre>@incollection{10.1039\/9781788019972-00302,<br \/>\r\ntitle = {Chapter 16 Q-space Singlet NMR},<br \/>\r\nauthor = {Allan M Torres and Giuseppe Pileio and William S Price},<br \/>\r\nurl = {http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/9781788019972-00302},<br \/>\r\ndoi = {10.1039\/9781788019972-00302},<br \/>\r\nisbn = {978-1-78801-568-4},<br \/>\r\nyear  = {2020},<br \/>\r\ndate = {2020-01-01},<br \/>\r\nbooktitle = {Long-lived Nuclear Spin Order: Theory and Applications},<br \/>\r\npages = {302-319},<br \/>\r\npublisher = {The Royal Society of Chemistry},<br \/>\r\nabstract = {Long-lived singlet spin states can be used to characterise the structures of microscopic pores in a liquid environment using NMR q-space diffusion imaging.

We have detected a remarkably long lifetime of the inner singlet-triplet coherence of about 200 s at the magnetic field of 5 mT<\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('62','tp_abstract')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"tp_links\" id=\"tp_links_62\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_links_entry\"><ul class=\"tp_pub_list\"><li><i class=\"fas fa-globe\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/C9CP00451C\" title=\"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/C9CP00451C\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/C9CP00451C<\/a><\/li><li><i class=\"ai ai-doi\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"https:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/C9CP00451C\" title=\"Follow DOI:10.1039\/C9CP00451C\" target=\"_blank\">doi:10.1039\/C9CP00451C<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('62','tp_links')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/td><\/tr><tr class=\"tp_publication_simple tp_publication_simple_article\"><td class=\"tp_pub_number_simple\">59.<\/td><td class=\"tp_pub_info_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_author_simple\">Dmitry Shishmarev, Alan J Wright, Tiago B Rodrigues, Giuseppe Pileio, Gabriele Stevanato, Kevin M Brindle, Philip W Kuchel<\/span>: <span class=\"tp_pub_title_simple\"><a class=\"tp_title_link\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('57','tp_links')\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Sub-minute kinetics of human red cell fumarase: 1H spin-echo NMR spectroscopy and 13C rapid-dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization<\/a><\/span>. <span class=\"tp_pub_additional_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_in\">In: <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_journal\">NMR in Biomedicine, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_volume\">vol. 31, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_number\">no. 3, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_pages\">pp. e3870\u2013n\/a, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_year\">2018<\/span>, <span class=\"tp_pub_additional_issn\">ISSN: 1099-1492<\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_note\">, (e3870 NBM-17-0125.R2)<\/span>.<\/span> <span class=\"tp_pub_menu_simple\">(Type: <span class=\"tp_pub_type tp_  article\">Journal Article<\/span> | <span class=\"tp_abstract_link\"><a id=\"tp_abstract_sh_57\" class=\"tp_show\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('57','tp_abstract')\" title=\"Show abstract\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Abstract<\/a><\/span> | <span class=\"tp_resource_link\"><a id=\"tp_links_sh_57\" class=\"tp_show\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('57','tp_links')\" title=\"Show links and resources\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Links<\/a><\/span>)<\/span><div class=\"tp_bibtex\" id=\"tp_bibtex_57\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_bibtex_entry\"><pre>@article{NBM:NBM3870,<br \/>\r\ntitle = {Sub-minute kinetics of human red cell fumarase: 1H spin-echo NMR spectroscopy and 13C rapid-dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization},<br \/>\r\nauthor = {Dmitry Shishmarev and Alan J Wright and Tiago B Rodrigues and Giuseppe Pileio and Gabriele Stevanato and Kevin M Brindle and Philip W Kuchel},<br \/>\r\nurl = {http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1002\/nbm.3870},<br \/>\r\ndoi = {10.1002\/nbm.3870},<br \/>\r\nissn = {1099-1492},<br \/>\r\nyear  = {2018},<br \/>\r\ndate = {2018-01-01},<br \/>\r\njournal = {NMR in Biomedicine},<br \/>\r\nvolume = {31},<br \/>\r\nnumber = {3},<br \/>\r\npages = {e3870--n\/a},<br \/>\r\nabstract = {Fumarate is an important probe of metabolism in hyperpolarized magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy.

This article presents the most relevant theory beyond these phenomena, the methodology introduced to prepare these states and the current and potential applications of singlet states.<\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('69','tp_abstract')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"tp_links\" id=\"tp_links_69\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_links_entry\"><ul class=\"tp_pub_list\"><li><i class=\"fas fa-globe\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/B9780124095472121031\" title=\"http:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/B9780124095472121031\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/B9780124095472121031<\/a><\/li><li><i class=\"ai ai-doi\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"https:\/\/dx.doi.org\/https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/B978-0-12-409547-2.12103-1\" title=\"Follow DOI:https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/B978-0-12-409547-2.12103-1\" target=\"_blank\">doi:https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/B978-0-12-409547-2.12103-1<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('69','tp_links')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/td><\/tr><tr class=\"tp_publication_simple tp_publication_simple_article\"><td class=\"tp_pub_number_simple\">50.<\/td><td class=\"tp_pub_info_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_author_simple\">Francesca Piana, David H Case, Susana M Ramalhete, Giuseppe Pileio, Marco Facciotti, Graeme M Day, Yaroslav Z Khimyak, Jesus Angulo, Richard C D Brown, Philip A Gale<\/span>: <span class=\"tp_pub_title_simple\"><a class=\"tp_title_link\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('8','tp_links')\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Substituent interference on supramolecular assembly in urea gelators: \r\n synthesis, structure prediction and NMR<\/a><\/span>. <span class=\"tp_pub_additional_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_in\">In: <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_journal\">SOFT MATTER, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_volume\">vol. 12, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_number\">no. 17, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_pages\">pp. 4034-4043, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_year\">2016<\/span>, <span class=\"tp_pub_additional_issn\">ISSN: 1744-683X<\/span>.<\/span> <span class=\"tp_pub_menu_simple\">(Type: <span class=\"tp_pub_type tp_  article\">Journal Article<\/span> | <span class=\"tp_abstract_link\"><a id=\"tp_abstract_sh_8\" class=\"tp_show\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('8','tp_abstract')\" title=\"Show abstract\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Abstract<\/a><\/span> | <span class=\"tp_resource_link\"><a id=\"tp_links_sh_8\" class=\"tp_show\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('8','tp_links')\" title=\"Show links and resources\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Links<\/a><\/span>)<\/span><div class=\"tp_bibtex\" id=\"tp_bibtex_8\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_bibtex_entry\"><pre>@article{ISI:000374974000021,<br \/>\r\ntitle = {Substituent interference on supramolecular assembly in urea gelators: <br \/>\r\n synthesis, structure prediction and NMR},<br \/>\r\nauthor = {Francesca Piana and David H Case and Susana M Ramalhete and Giuseppe Pileio and Marco Facciotti and Graeme M Day and Yaroslav Z Khimyak and Jesus Angulo and Richard C D Brown and Philip A Gale},<br \/>\r\ndoi = {10.1039\/c6sm00607h},<br \/>\r\nissn = {1744-683X},<br \/>\r\nyear  = {2016},<br \/>\r\ndate = {2016-01-01},<br \/>\r\njournal = {SOFT MATTER},<br \/>\r\nvolume = {12},<br \/>\r\nnumber = {17},<br \/>\r\npages = {4034-4043},<br \/>\r\nabstract = {Eighteen N-aryl-N'-alkyl urea gelators were synthesised in order to <br \/>\r\n understand the effect of head substituents on gelation performance. <br \/>\r\n Minimum gelation concentration values obtained from gel formation <br \/>\r\n studies were used to rank the compounds and revealed the remarkable <br \/>\r\n performance of 4-methoxyphenyl urea gelator 15 in comparison to <br \/>\r\n 4-nitrophenyl analogue 14, which could not be simply ascribed to <br \/>\r\n substituent effects on the hydrogen bonding capabilities of the urea <br \/>\r\n protons.

This effect was investigated by means <br \/>\r\n of electrostatic potential surface calculations and P-31-H-1 NMR <br \/>\r\n spectroscopy.<\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('15','tp_abstract')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><div class=\"tp_links\" id=\"tp_links_15\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_links_entry\"><ul class=\"tp_pub_list\"><li><i class=\"ai ai-doi\"><\/i><a class=\"tp_pub_list\" href=\"https:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1039\/c4ra15241g\" title=\"Follow DOI:10.1039\/c4ra15241g\" target=\"_blank\">doi:10.1039\/c4ra15241g<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><p class=\"tp_close_menu\"><a class=\"tp_close\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('15','tp_links')\">Close<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/td><\/tr><tr class=\"tp_publication_simple tp_publication_simple_article\"><td class=\"tp_pub_number_simple\">42.<\/td><td class=\"tp_pub_info_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_author_simple\">Jean-Nicolas Dumez, Joseph T Hill-Cousins, Richard C D Brown, Giuseppe Pileio<\/span>: <span class=\"tp_pub_title_simple\"><a class=\"tp_title_link\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('16','tp_links')\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Long-lived localization in magnetic resonance imaging<\/a><\/span>. <span class=\"tp_pub_additional_simple\"><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_in\">In: <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_journal\">JOURNAL OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_volume\">vol. 246, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_pages\">pp. 27-30, <\/span><span class=\"tp_pub_additional_year\">2014<\/span>, <span class=\"tp_pub_additional_issn\">ISSN: 1090-7807<\/span>.<\/span> <span class=\"tp_pub_menu_simple\">(Type: <span class=\"tp_pub_type tp_  article\">Journal Article<\/span> | <span class=\"tp_abstract_link\"><a id=\"tp_abstract_sh_16\" class=\"tp_show\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('16','tp_abstract')\" title=\"Show abstract\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Abstract<\/a><\/span> | <span class=\"tp_resource_link\"><a id=\"tp_links_sh_16\" class=\"tp_show\" onclick=\"teachpress_pub_showhide('16','tp_links')\" title=\"Show links and resources\" style=\"cursor:pointer;\">Links<\/a><\/span>)<\/span><div class=\"tp_bibtex\" id=\"tp_bibtex_16\" style=\"display:none;\"><div class=\"tp_bibtex_entry\"><pre>@article{ISI:000342120500005,<br \/>\r\ntitle = {Long-lived localization in magnetic resonance imaging},<br \/>\r\nauthor = {Jean-Nicolas Dumez and Joseph T Hill-Cousins and Richard C D Brown and Giuseppe Pileio},<br \/>\r\ndoi = {10.1016\/j.jmr.2014.06.008},<br \/>\r\nissn = {1090-7807},<br \/>\r\nyear  = {2014},<br \/>\r\ndate = {2014-09-01},<br \/>\r\njournal = {JOURNAL OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE},<br \/>\r\nvolume = {246},<br \/>\r\npages = {27-30},<br \/>\r\nabstract = {The longitudinal nuclear relaxation time, T-1, sets a stringent limit on <br \/>\r\n the range of information that can be obtained from magnetic resonance <br \/>\r\n imaging (MRI) experiments.

The feasibility of utilizing N(2)O <br \/>\r\n as a tracer is investigated by measuring the singlet-state lifetime of <br \/>\r\n the N(2)O when dissolved in a variety of solvents including whole blood. <br \/>\r\n Comparison of the singlet lifetime to longitudinal relaxation and <br \/>\r\n between protonated and deuterated solvents is consistent with the <br \/>\r\n dominance of spin-rotation relaxation, except in the case of blood.

The method is used to filter out <br \/>\r\n NMR signals that have passed through singlet populations in a solution <br \/>\r\n NMR experiment. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc.
