## Abstract The biochemical changes associated with brain maturation during the first 28 days postnatal were investigated utilizing proton and phosphorusβ31 nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in rat pups __in vivo.__ Phosphocreatine was found to increase linearly during this period of developm
Biochemical maturation of the brain can be studied noninvasively by (1)H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in human infants. Detailed time courses of cerebral tissue contents are known for the most abundant metabolites only, and whether or not premature birth affects biochemical maturation of th
