Abstract
Hydrogen is an alternative fuel that can play a critical role in achieving net zero emissions, leading to global environment sustainability. An iridium-immobilized catalyst based on polyethyleneimine (PEI) was synthesized and utilized for hydrogen production via formic acid dehydrogenation (FADH). Iridium complex is cross-linked with its ligand and PEI to form the immobilized catalyst, where the iridium content could be easily varied in the range of 1-10 %. The structure of the iridium-immobilized catalyst was confirmed using solid-state NMR, DNP NMR, and FTIR spectroscopies. The iridium-immobilized catalyst with PEI showed excellent catalytic activity for FADH, exhibiting the catalyst's highest turnover frequency (TOF) value of 73 200 h-1 and a large turnover number (TON) value of over 1 130 000. The catalyst could be used for continuous hydrogen production via FADH, exhibiting high durability for over 2 000 h with TON value of 332 889 without any degradation in catalytic activity. The obtained hydrogen gas was evaluated for power generation using a standard fuel cell, as well as achieved 5 h of stable power generation.

Abstract
Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive, fatal neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor, cognitive, and psychiatric symptoms. The precise mechanisms of HD progression are poorly understood; however, it is known that there is an expansion of the trinucleotide cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) repeat in the Huntingtin gene. Important new strategies are of paramount importance to identify early biomarkers with predictive value for intervening in disease progression at a stage when cellular dysfunction has not progressed irreversibly. Metabolomics is the study of global metabolite profiles in a system (cell, tissue, or organism) under certain conditions and is becoming an essential tool for the systemic characterization of metabolites to provide a snapshot of the functional and pathophysiological states of an organism and support disease diagnosis and biomarker discovery. This review briefly highlights the historical progress of metabolomic methodologies, followed by a more detailed review of the use of metabolomics in HD research to enable a greater understanding of the pathogenesis, its early prediction, and finally the main technical platforms in the field of metabolomics.

MAGNETIC RESONANCE (GOTTINGEN, GERMANY) 2023; 4:231-241. [PMID: 37904856 PMCID: PMC10539783 DOI: 10.5194/mr-4-231-2023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 11/01/2023]
Abstract
Cryogenic magic angle spinning (MAS) is a standard technique utilized for dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). Here we describe the optimization and implementation of a stator for cryogenic MAS with 9.5 mm diameter spherical rotors, allowing for DNP experiments on large sample volumes. Designs of the stator and rotor for cryogenic MAS build on recent advancements of MAS spheres and take a step further to incorporate sample insert and eject and a temperature-independent spinning stability of ± 1 Hz. At a field of 7 T and spinning at 2.0 kHz with a sample temperature of 105-107 K, DNP enhancements of 256 and 200 were observed for 124 and 223 µ L sample volumes, respectively, each consisting of 4 M 13 C, 15 N-labeled urea and 20 mM AMUPol in a glycerol-water glassy matrix.

Supercritical CO 2 impregnation process applied to polymer samples preparation for dynamic nuclear polarization solid-state NMR. MAGNETIC RESONANCE IN CHEMISTRY : MRC 2022; 60:1171-1177.

Abstract
In this study, supercritical CO2 (scCO2 ) was used to impregnate polymers with paramagnetic polarizing agents to prepare samples for dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) solid-state NMR (ssNMR) experiments. As a proof of concept, we impregnated polystyrene samples with bTbK, which stands for bis-TEMPO-bisketal where TEMPO is 2,2,6,6-tetra-methylpiperindin-1-oxyl. Substantial DNP signal enhancements could be measured on DNP-enhanced 1 H → 13 C cross-polarization (CP) magic-angle spinning (MAS) spectra recorded at 9.4 T and ~100 K, reaching a maximum value of 8 in the most favorable case, which appeared comparable or even higher than what is typically obtained on similar systems for former sample preparation methods. These results highlight the potential of scCO2 impregnation as an efficient and possibly versatile methodology to prepare polymer samples for DNP ssNMR investigations.
