## Abstract This work describes the use of [Pr‐DO3A] as a shift reagent for differentiating intra‐ and extracellular L‐lactate resonance in ^1^H‐ and ^13^C‐NMR spectra. DO3A acts as heptadentate ligand towards lanthanide(III) ions, leaving two coordination vacancies for the coordination of the L‐la

Abstract
Intracellular/extracellular lactate (Lac) distribution has been determined before in human and animal erythrocytes (red blood cells [RBCs]) with various methods. However, all previous methods determine intra‐ and extracellular Lac separately or indirectly. Now, ^13^C‐NMR spectroscopy has been used to monitor intra‐ and extracellular Lac simultaneously in intact RBCs. Isolated human RBCs were incubated with [3‐^13^C]‐Lac, [3‐^13^C]‐pyruvate (Pyr), and [1‐^13^C]‐glucose (Gluc). A distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) sequence was used (TR = 3.3 s, N = 128) to monitor the ^13^C‐NMR resonances in both compartments. The intra‐ and extracellular methyl group resonances of Lac and Pyr were clearly separated by 9.6 Hz and 7.0 Hz, respectively, under normoxic conditions due to the RBC chemical‐shift effect. The results show that the chemical‐shift effect of RBCs is convenient to monitor intra‐ and extracellular Lac simultaneously in intact RBCs under normoxic conditions.
