## Abstract The aim of this study was to apply ^31^P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) using spatial localization with optimal point spread function (SLOOP) to investigate possible age and gender dependencies of the energy metabolite concentrations in the human heart. Thirty healthy volunteers

A technique to determine absolute metabolite concentrations of the kidney in vivo using 31P NMR is described. The technique is based on the use of methylphosphonic acid (MPA), which gives rise to a well-resolved peak upfield from in vivo phosphorous metabolite resonances, as an "internal standard."
The effects that haemoglobin-metabolite interactions have on estimates of free magnesium-ion concentration in human erythrocytes, determined by 31P NMR [Gupta, R. K. et al., J. Biol. Chem. 253, 6172-6176 (1978)], were investigated. If the metabolite-haemoglobin association constants of Berger et al.
The difference in concentration of phosphorylated metabolites in muscles with different fiber composition was studied in vivo by localized 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in the rat hindlimb. 120-160 pl volumes were selected in regions containing the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles. Con
