Nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) was used to study a feasibility test for the possibility to develop a moisture sensor applicable for agricultural products such as raw and powdered grain. Samples of wheat flour and brown rice were tested with a 200MHz hydrogen NMR. The samples were loaded into 5mm NMR glass tubes and $30^{\circ}$ pulses were supplied to get resonance signals. Hydrogen spectrum intensities of the samples were compared to moisture content measured by a drying oven method. High linear correlations were obtained between the hydrogen spectrum intensity and moisture content. Therefore, moisure contents of agricultural products could be measured nondestructively utilizing the NMR principle. A low-cost design concept of the moisture sensor with the NMR principle was proposed for a practical use.

The metabolic discrimination of safflowers from various geographical origins was performed using 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy followed by principal components analysis. With a combination of these techniques, safflower samples from different origins could be discriminated using the first two principal components (PC) of the 1H NMR spectra of the 50% methanol fractions. PC1 and PC2 accounted cumulatively for 91.3% of the variation in all variables. The major peaks in the 1H NMR spectra that contributed to the discrimination were assigned to fatty acid (terminal CH3), lactic acid, acetic acid, choline derivatives, glycine, and safflower yellow derivatives. In this study, we suggest that various types of safflower can be discriminated using PCA and 1H NMR spectra.

The LB71350,(3S, 4R)-Epoxy-(5S)-[[N-(1-methylethoxy)carbonyl]-3-(methylsulfonyl)-L-valinyl]amino]-N-[2-methyl-(1R)-[(phenyl)carbonylpropyl-6-phenylhexanamide, is a novel HIV protease inhibitor. Its equilibrium solubility at room temperature was less than $40{\mu}g/mL.$ It was speculated that the low aqueous solubility might be due to the high crystalline lattice energy resulting from intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The present study was carried out to learn the solid-state characteristics of LB71350 using analytical methods such as NMR, FT-IR and XRD. $^{13}C$ Solid-state NMR, solution NMR, and FT-IR spectra of the various solid forms of LB71350 were used to identify the conformation and structure of the solid forms. The chemical shifts of $^{13}C$ solid-state NMR spectra suggest that the crystalline form might have 3 intermolecular hydrogen bondings between monomers.

[ $^{13}C$ ] NMR spectra were obtained for pure $CH_4$ hydrate in order to identify hydrate structure and cage occupancy of guest molecule. The NMR technique can provide both qualitative and quantitative hydrate characteristics. The moles of methane captured into pure $CH_4$ hydrate per mole of water were found to be similar to the full occupancy value. The overall results drawn from this study can be usefully applied to storage and transportation of natural gas.

Specific molecular recognition of cyclodextrin and aspirin was determined. A stable 1:1 inclusion complex was established in solution. The distinct structure of inclusion complex was elucidated by FT-IR, FAB-MS, UV, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopy. Based on the 1H NMR data, a time-averaged conformation of $\alpha$-cyclodextrin exhibited significant catalytic activity toward the hydrolysis of aspirin in alkaline solution.

Four secondary metabolites from an unidentified tunicate were isolated by treatment with trichloroethyl chloroformate(TECF) or acetic anhydride in pyridine. Their structures were determined by an extensive NMR analysis and the configuration of diacetyl derivatives(3a, 4a) was assigned by comparing with NMR data of a similar compound. Three new naturally occurring compounds (1, 3, 4) showed potent brine shrimp lethality and antifungal effect against Candia albicans.

$^1H$ nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy of biological samples has been proven to be an effective and nondestructive approach to probe drug toxicity within an organism. In this study, ketoprofen toxicity was investigated using $^1H$-NMR spectroscopy coupled with multivariate statistical analysis. Histopathologic test of ketoprofen-induced acute gastrointestinal damage in rats demonstrated a significant dose-dependent effect. Furthermore, principal component analysis (PCA) derived from $^1H$-NMR spectra of urinary samples showed clear separation between the vehicle-treated control and ketoprofen-treated groups. Moreover, PCA derived from endogenous metabolite concentrations through targeted profiling revealed a dose-dependent metabolic shift between the vehicle-treated control, low-dose ketoprofen-treated (10 mg/kg body weight), and high-dose ketoprofen-treated (50 mg/kg) groups coinciding with their gastric damage scores after ketoprofen administration. The resultant metabolic profiles demonstrated that the ketoprofen-induced gastric damage exhibited energy metabolism perturbations that increased urinary levels of citrate, cis-aconitate, succinate, and phosphocreatine. In addition, ketoprofen administration induced an enhancement of xenobiotic activity in fatty oxidation, which caused increase levels of N-isovalerylglycine, adipate, phenylacetylglycine, dimethylamine, betaine, hippurate, 3-indoxylsulfate, N,N-dimethylglycine, trimethyl-N-oxide, and glycine. These findings demonstrate that $^1H$-NMR-based urinary metabolic profiling can be used for noninvasive and rapid way to diagnose adverse drug effects and is suitable for explaining the possible biological pathways perturbed by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug toxicity.

Of the experiments to shorten NMR measuring time by sparse sampling, non-uniform sampling (NUS) is advantageous. NUS miminizes systematic errors which arise due to the lack of samplings by randomization. In this study, I report the real-time acquisition of 3D NMR data using NUS and maximum-entropy (MaxEnt) data processing. The real-time acquisition combined with NUS can reduce NMR measuring time much more. Compared with multidimensional decomposition (MDD) method, which was originally suggested by Jaravine and Orekhov (JACS 2006, 13421-13426), MaxEnt is faster at least several times and more suitable for the realtime acquisition. The designed sampling schedule of current study makes all the spectra during acquisition have the comparable resulting resolutions by MaxEnt. Therefore, one can judge the quality of spectra easily by examining the intensities of peaks. I report two cases of 3D experiments as examples with the simulated subdataset from experimental data. In both cases, the spectra having good qualitie for data analysis could be obtained only with 3% of original data. Its corresponding NMR measuring time was 8 minutes for 3D HNCO of ubiquitin.

Hydrotalcites are anionic clays that are quite prevalent in nature and their importance is growing more and more because of their very wide range of potential applications and uses. Understanding the structural and compositional changes that occur on the molecular scale during the thermal decomposition of hydrotalcite compounds is essential for the basic prediction and comprehensive understanding of the behavior and technical application of these materials. In this study, several hydrotalcite compounds calcined at different temperatures for applications in a chlorine resistant textile were prepared and 27-Aluminm solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used as a tool to study their local structure and behavior. The changes in the Al coordination of the hydrotalcite compounds were investigated with one dimensional (1D) solid-state magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectroscopy. The two broad resonances arising from the structurally different Al coordinations of these compounds were clearly resolved by two dimensional (2D) triple quantum magic angle spinning (3QMAS) NMR spectroscopy.
