Abstract: | The 1H-NMR signal of deoxy Mb provides a unique opportunity to measure tissue oxygenation in vivo. To utilize the technique for human application, however, requires a specific spectral characterization of both human Mb and erythrocyte Hb. We report that the proximal histidyl-NH signal of human deoxy Mb resonates at 80.3 ppm at 25°C and maintains a 3.9 ppm separation with the corresponding Hb A signal throughout the physioiogical temperature range. In the particular case of the human thenar muscle, the deoxy Mb signal is clearly detectable without any interference from Hb. |
