## Abstract The oneโ and twoโbond ^13^C isotope shifts, typically โ1.5 to โ2.5 ppb and โ0.7 ppb respectively, in nonโcyclic aliphatic systems and up to โ4.4 ppb and โ1.0 ppb in glucose cause effects that need to be taken into account in the adaptive NMR spectral libraryโbased quantification of the

Abstract
A potato plant has been grown in a closed chamber with CO~2~ enriched to a level of 31 at. % in ^13^C as the sole source of carbon. In 80 days the plant produced 1,684 g of tubers labeled with 29 at. % ^13^C. of the carbon fixed by the potato plant appromixately 70% was found in the tubers while 30% was found in the tops and roots. Recovered starch granules constituted 10% of the fresh weight of these tubers. A 16% yield of glucose was obtained, based on all of the carbon dioxide used. Distribution of the ^13^C label among the six species of carbon atoms in strach appears to be nearly uniform. The plant and tubers were indistinguishable from those grown on normal isotopic CO~2~ indicating no gross isotope effect at this level of ^13^C enrichement.

We detected glutamate C4 and C3 labeling in the monkey brain during an infusion of [U-13C6]glucose, using a simple 1H PRESS sequence without 13C editing or decoupling. Point-resolved spectroscopy (PRESS) spectra revealed decreases in 12C-bonded protons, and increases in 13C-bonded protons of glutama
