Radical-free hyperpolarized MRI using endogenously-occurring pyruvate analogues and UV-induced nonpersistent radicals

Claudia C Zanella, Andrea Capozzi, Hikari AI Yoshihara +4

It was demonstrated that nonpersistent radicals can be generated in frozen solutions of metabolites such as pyruvate by irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) light, enabling radical-fr…
