✦ Synopsis


500 MHz 1H NMR studies of rat urine are used to assess metabolic changes resulting from aging (0.5-20 months) and changes in diet (casein versus chow). Aging rats fed chow diets decrease their excretion of citrate and 2-oxoglutarate, while the output of taurine and creatinine increases. Only young rats (1 month or less postweaning) excrete significant amounts of betaine and trimethylamine-N-oxide. Rats fed casein diets for 1 month postweaning do not excrete 2-oxoglutarate and excrete lower levels of hippurate, succinate, and citrate compared to rats fed chow diets. They also excrete N-methylnicotinamide. These high resolution proton NMR studies provide metabolic profiles which are not readily available by other techniques.

## Abstract Magic‐angle spinning (MAS) has recently been shown to enhance spectral resolution in NMR examinations of intact biological tissue ex vivo. This work demonstrates that freezing certain tissue samples before examination by ^1^H MAS NMR can have a marked effect on their spectra. Spectra of
