## Abstract At present two alternative methods are available for analyzing the fluxes in a metabolic network: (1) combining measurements of net conversion rates with a set of metabolite balances including the cofactor balances, or (2) leaving out the cofactor balances and fitting the resulting free

β¦ Synopsis
2D [ 13 C, 1 H] COSY NMR is used by the metabolic engineering community for determining 13 C 13 C connectivities in intracellular compounds that contain information regarding the steady-state fluxes in cellular metabolism. This paper proposes innovations in the generation and analysis of these specific NMR spectra. These include a computer tool that allows accurate determination of the relative peak areas and their complete covariance matrices even in very complex spectra. Additionally, a method is introduced for correcting the results for isotopic non-steady-state conditions. The proposed methods were applied to measured 2D [ 13 C, 1 H] COSY NMR spectra. Peak intensities in a one-dimensional section of the spectrum are frequently not representative for relative peak volumes in the two-dimensional spectrum. It is shown that for some spectra a significant amount of additional information can be gained from long-range 13 C 13 C scalar couplings in 2D [ 13 C, 1 H] COSY NMR spectra. Finally, the NMR resolution enhancement by dissolving amino acid derivatives in a nonpolar solvent is demonstrated.

The 'H and "C NMR chemical shift assignments of trans-and cis-10-chlorodecal-2-ones were based on 2D COSY and HETCOR experiments. The spectra were measured either in CDCI, or in C,D, to optimize the spectral dispersion (ASIS effect). Selective spin decoupling experiments were also performed.

The discrimination between the cis and the trans c
The polyamines putrescine, spermidine and spermine are involved in the regulation of various metabolic processes. It is therefore desirable to detect and quantify the polyamines with NMR. We present the proton and carbon assignments for all polyamine signals obtained from PCA extracts of F98 glioma
## Abstract The ^1^H CW offβresonance decoupled ^13^C NMR spectra of pheromones and unsaturated fatty acids were measured for the determination of the configuration of double bonds of the type ο£ΏCH~2~ο£ΏCH ο£Ύ CHο£ΏCH~2~ο£Ώ. The decoupling frequency corresponded to the resonance frequency of the CH~2~ proto
