| Research Abstract |
The study of the behavior of free radicals in a living body has recently become very important in pathology, physiology and pharmacology, We have developed a 350MHz pulsed EPR(Electron paramagnetic resonance) spectrometer especially used for in situ measurement of a rat's whole body, and obtained the following results.
(1) Optimum pulse width and quality factor Q of the resonator are 10-68ns and 10-60, respectively, for the relaxation time constant T_2=10-100ns of bio-radicals, and 68-158ns and 60-280, respectively, for T_2=100-800ns of radicals in solid materials.
(2) Using this spectrometer, the signal of electron spin echo(ESE) was detected for the sample of gamma-irradiated quartz powder. Signal voltage was 3-5mV for 1,400-1 , 600ns of pulse interval.
(3) Relaxation time constant of gamma-irradiated quartz is estimated to be 778 ns, This value is nearly equal to 759 ns obtained at 1.3 GHz in our laboratory.
(4) It is required to reduce the Q value of the resonator to make the measurement of bio radicals possible.
