Abstract
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has been used in food science and nutritional studies for decades and is one of the major analytical platforms in metabolomics. Many foods are solid or at least semi-solid, which denotes that the molecular motions are restricted as opposed to in pure liquids. While the majority of NMR spectroscopy is performed on liquid samples and a solid material gives rise to constraints in terms of many chemical analyses, the magic angle thrillingly enables the application of NMR spectroscopy also on semi-solid and solid materials. This paper attempts to review how magic-angle spinning (MAS) NMR is used from 'farm-to-fork' in food science.

Abstract
A binomial-like block based multiple suppression NMR pulse sequence, termed MULTI-GATE-FSB, that is simple to implement with outstanding suppression performance for multiple solvent signals (or multiple resonances) is investigated. The sequence was tested on two water-alcohol solvent systems, and a standard lysozyme sample, with suppression of three or four regions (though it is extendable to any number of regions). The suppression of all solvent signals was possible in the alcohol-water systems tested with both long and short recycle delays and without the requirement for lengthy presaturation pulses. Such a sequence holds promise not only for LC-NMR applications and solvent suppression but for multiple suppression applications in general (e.g., analysis of impurities/components).

Abstract
A simple and robust solvent suppression technique that enables acquisition of high-quality 1D 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra of alcoholic beverages on cryoprobe instruments was developed and applied to acquire NMR spectra of Scotch Whisky. The method uses 3 channels to suppress signals of water and ethanol, including those of 13 C satellites of ethanol. It is executed in automation allowing high throughput investigations of alcoholic beverages. On the basis of the well-established 1D nuclear Overhauser spectroscopy (NOESY) solvent suppression technique, this method suppresses the solvent at the beginning of the pulse sequence, producing pure phase signals minimally affected by the relaxation. The developed solvent suppression procedure was integrated into several homocorrelated and heterocorrelated 2D NMR experiments, including 2D correlation spectroscopy (COSY), 2D total correlation spectroscopy (TOCSY), 2D band-selective TOCSY, 2D J-resolved spectroscopy, 2D 1 H, 13 C heteronuclear single-quantum correlation spectroscopy (HSQC), 2D 1 H, 13 C HSQC-TOCSY, and 2D 1 H, 13 C heteronuclear multiple-bond correlation spectroscopy (HMBC). A 1D chemical-shift-selective TOCSY experiments was also modified. The wealth of information obtained by these experiments will assist in NMR structure elucidation of Scotch Whisky congeners and generally the composition of alcoholic beverages at the molecular level.

Abstract
NMR-based biochemical profiling of natural products has become popular due to the development of high-resolution instruments (>400 MHz) and cryogenically cooled probes/preamplifiers, by increasing the sensitivity of NMR instruments several fold and reducing instrument noise levels. NMR provides a rapid, nondestructive, high-throughput method that requires minimal sample preparation, therefore maintaining the biological integrity of the sample. One-dimensional (1D) solution-state (1)H NMR is used in untargeted sample screening (metabolomics/metabonomics) to gain insight into spectral pattern changes associated with samples of different origins. Metabolomics and metabonomics contextually explains the systematic and quantitative measurement of metabolites that are produced from the biochemical reactions of living systems. This chapter describes some commonly used (1)H NMR experiments for identification and quantification of small molecular weight, water soluble metabolites in biological samples, some considerations for choosing the correct NMR experiment, and sample preparation protocols for isolating metabolites from a number of biological sample types.

Abstract
Over the last several decades, significant technical and experimental advances have made quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance (qNMR) a valuable analytical tool for quantitative measurements on a wide variety of samples. In particular, qNMR has emerged as an important method for metabolomics studies where it is used for interrogation of large sets of biological samples and the resulting spectra are treated with multivariate statistical analysis methods. In this review, recent developments in instrumentation and pulse sequences will be discussed as well as the practical considerations necessary for acquisition of quantitative NMR experiments with an emphasis on their use for bioanalysis. Recent examples of the application of qNMR for metabolomics/metabonomics studies, the characterization of biologicals such as heparin, antibodies, and vaccines, and the analysis of botanical natural products will be presented and the future directions of qNMR discussed.

Abstract
Radiation damping on 600 and 800 MHz cryoprobes was investigated. The phase angle β between a vector 90° phase shifted to the precessing magnetization and the rf field induced in the coil was found to depend markedly on whether an FID was being acquired or not. The magnitude of the radiation damping field was sufficiently strong to restore 95% of the equilibrium water magnetization of a 90% H2O sample in a 5 mm sample tube within about 5 ms following a 165° pulse. This can be exploited in water flip-back versions of NOESY and TOCSY experiments of proteins, but care must be taken to limit the effect of the radiation damping field from the water on the Ha protons. Long water-selective pulses can be applied only following corrections. We developed a program for correcting pulse shapes if β is non-zero. The WATERGATE scheme is shown to be insensitive to imperfections introduced by radiation damping.

Abstract
Water suppression in biological NMR is frequently made inefficient by the presence of faraway water that is located near the edges of the RF coil and experiences significantly reduced RF field. WET180 (WET with 180 degrees pulse-toggling) is proposed to cancel the faraway water contribution to the residual solvent signal. The pulse sequence incorporates a modification of the last WET selective pulse to accommodate insertion of a toggled 180 degrees inversion pulse so that the original WET selective pulse angles are effectively preserved. Compared with existing WET methods, WET180 has the advantages of easy implementation, improved residual water suppression, clean spectral phase properties, and good signal intensity retention. WET180 is expected to be most useful in observing resonances close to water in samples containing biological molecules. In addition, the principle of WET180 can be applied in multidimensional experiments to improve residual water suppression and reduce artifacts around water.

Abstract
The objective of the study was to investigate the ability of an NMR-based metabonomic approach, applied to biofluids, to explore and identify overall exogenous and endogenous biochemical effects of a short-time high intake of milk protein or meat protein given to prepubertal children, the aim being to compare relative differences and not an absolute quantification. A total of twenty-four 8-year-old boys were asked to take 53 g protein as milk (n 12) or meat daily (n 12). At baseline and after 7 d, urine and serum samples were collected and high-resolution 1H NMR spectra were acquired on these using a 800 MHz spectrometer. The milk diet reduced the urinary excretion of hippurate, while the meat diet increased the urinary excretion of creatine, histidine and urea. The NMR measurements on serum revealed minor changes in the lipid profile, which most probably should be ascribed to an increase in the content of SCFA in the blood after consumption of the milk diet. The meat diet had no effect on the metabolic profile of serum. The study for the first time demonstrates the capability of proton NMR-based metabonomics to identify the overall biochemical effects of consumption of different animal proteins. The urine metabolite profile is more susceptible to perturbations as a result of short diet interventions than the serum metabolite profile. The milk diet-induced reduction in urinary excretion of hippurate suggests alterations in gut microflora, which may be useful information for further studies elucidating the effects of bioactive components in milk.

Abstract
The efficiency of cell-free protein synthesis combined with combinatorial selective 15N-labelling provides a method for the rapid assignment of 15N-HSQC cross-peaks to the 19 different non-proline amino-acid types from five 15N-HSQC spectra. This strategy was explored with two different constructs of the C-terminal domain V of the tau subunit of the Escherichia coli DNA polymerase III holoenzyme, tauC16 and tauC14. Since each of the five 15N-HSQC spectra contained only about one third of the cross-peaks present in uniformly labelled samples, spectral overlap was much reduced. All 15N-HSQC cross-peaks of the backbone amides could be assigned to the correct amino-acid type. Availability of the residue-type information greatly assisted the evaluation of the changes in chemical shifts observed for corresponding residues in tauC16 vs. those in tauC14, and the analysis of the structure and mobility of the C-terminal residues present in tauC16 but not in tauC14.
