Abstract

High‐resolution magic‐angle spinning has become a valuable tool to study biologic samples; however, there are only a few high‐resolution magic‐angle spinning methodologies that have been explored specifically to deal with small semisolid biomaterials such as tissues. Here, we report a novel high‐resolution ^1^H NMR spectroscopic approach using magic‐angle coil spinning. We demonstrate its potential for intact tissues by combining a resonant microcoil with a large‐volume commercial magic‐angle spinning rotor, where the microcoil offers incredible sensitivity and the large‐volume magic‐angle spinning rotor provides stable slow magic‐angle spinning. This approach provides high‐resolution spectra with high sensitivity and the preservation of living biologic specimens for an accurate chemical analysis.

## Abstract High‐resolution magic angle spinning (HRMAS) NMR is probably the most apt NMR method to analyze complex materials involving a solid phase, e.g. foodstuffs. We present here an HRMAS analysis of grated cheese (Parmigiano Reggiano). A full NMR characterization of this cheese allows the ide
