The nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique was applied tothe measurement of sandstone specimens and analysis of the magnetic resonance imaging. Then, the fractal theory was employed tocompute the fractal dimension values of pore development of rocks after different freeze-thaw cycles. The results show that the massand porosity of rocks grow with the increase of freeze-thaw cycles. According to the NMR T2 distribution of sandstones, the poresizes of rock specimens increase after 180 freeze-thaw cycles, especially that of the medium-sized and small-sized pores. The spatialdistribution of sandstone pores after freeze-thaw cycles has fractal features within certain range, and the fractal dimension ofsandstones tends to increase gradually.展开更多

Regardless of living habits, it will be reflected in the metabolic characteristics of urine. The utilization of the 1H NMR-based metabolomics method has enabled examine the metabolomic changes in urine under various physiology conditions, providing valuable insights into metabolites. In this particular study, volunteers were divided into two groups based on the strength of their spleen pulses, using the pulse diagnosis method employed in traditional Chinese medicine. Subsequently, their urine samples were analyzed, revealing notable variances in urea, creatinine, citric acid, succinic acid, trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), alanine, hippuric acid, and glycine between the two groups. Interestingly, individuals with weak spleen pulses showed significant improvements after consuming herbal tea. Furthermore, we conducted LC-MS analysis on herbal tea and performed adenosine triphosphate (ATP) activity tests on the C2C12 mouse skeletal muscle cell line. The results indicated that within a reasonable concentration range, exposure to herbal tea led to an increase in the mitochondrial ATP production capacity of C2C12 cells. These findings shed light on the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine pulse diagnosis and urine metabolites, highlighting their potential as non-invasive and straightforward health assessment indicators. They can aid in the preliminary determination of necessary dietary and lifestyle changes to enhance overall bodily health.展开更多
为了探讨冻融过程中羊肉保水性的变化规律,用低场核磁共振(Nuclear magnetic resonance,NMR)技术研究了羊肉冻融过程中水的T2驰豫性质变化,同时用解冻汁液流失率、加压失水率、蒸煮损失率指标测定保水性变化。结果表明:随着冻融次数增加...为了探讨冻融过程中羊肉保水性的变化规律,用低场核磁共振(Nuclear magnetic resonance,NMR)技术研究了羊肉冻融过程中水的T2驰豫性质变化,同时用解冻汁液流失率、加压失水率、蒸煮损失率指标测定保水性变化。结果表明:随着冻融次数增加,解冻汁液流失率先显著增加,后保持较小变化,加压失水率和蒸煮损失率先显著下降再上升最后再显著下降。NMRT2驰豫测定结果显示,肌肉中有结合水、不易流动水和自由流动水3个组分,对应的横向弛豫时间分别是T2b、T21、T22,T21和冻融次数、蒸煮损失、加压失水率显著相关;T22与保水性的变化趋势一致。羊肉冻融后持水力显著下降,因此在流通过程中,尽可能避免冻融现象的出现,T21可以做为考察冻融后肉品质持水能力的一个重要指标。展开更多
