Abstract

The nitroxide group 2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl (TEMPO) was covalently bound to a dextran via an N‐acetamido linkage to produce a novel spin probe, TEMPO‐dextran (TEMPO‐DX), which circulates for long time periods in an animal without metabolic degradation. TEMPO‐DX was stable in mice, while small TEMPO analogs quickly disappeared after administration. Since dextran was reduced somewhat in size during synthesis, the resultant spin‐labeled dextran could be excreted through the kidney. A strong L‐band electron spin resonance signal was obtained shortly after Intravenous administration of TEMPO‐DX into the tail vein of a mouse, from which three‐dimensional images of specific organs were calculated. The signal was found to persist for well over 1 h.

Spin label electron spin resonance (ESR) was used to characterize the response of lipid regions of the plasma membrane of yeast to photodynamic attack. Following photodynamic attack, the structure of these lipid regions changed resulting in the disappearance of an apparent order-disorder phase trans
