## Abstract The application of in vivo ^13^C MR spectroscopy to mouse brain models is potentially valuable for improving the understanding of cerebral carbohydrate metabolism and glutamatergic neurotransmission in various neuropathologies. However, the low sensitivity of ^13^C nuclei and contaminat

## Abstract Localized, waterโsuppressed ^1^Hโ[^13^C]โNMR spectroscopy was used to detect ^13^Cโlabel accumulation in cerebral metabolites following the intravenous infusion of [1,6โ^13^C~2~]โglucose (Glc). The ^1^Hโ[^13^C]โNMR method, based on adiabatic RF pulses, 3D imageโselected in vivo spectros
## Abstract Dynamic nuclear polarization can be used to increase the sensitivity of solution state ^13^C magnetic resonance spectroscopy by four orders of magnitude. We show here that [1โ^13^C]glutamate can be polarized to 28%, representing a 35,000โfold increase in its sensitivity to detection at
## Abstract The design of an RF probe suitable for obtaining protonโdecoupled ^13^C spectra from a subhuman primate brain is described. Two orthogonal saddle coils, one tuned to the resonant frequency of ^13^C and the other to the resonant frequency of ^1^H, were used to monitor the __in vivo__ met
## Abstract With the use of localized ^13^C MRS in conjunction with [1โ^13^C]โDโglucose infusion, it is possible to study brain glycogen metabolism in vivo. The purpose of this study was to validate in vivo ^13^C MRS measurements by comparing them with results from a standard biochemical assay. To
