Electron Spin Echo Spectroscopy and the Study of Metalloproteins

  • Chapter
Biological Magnetic Resonance

Abstract

The remarkable growth in the use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in chemical and biological research in recent years has depended to a great degree on the successful application of pulse methods. These have now all but supplanted traditional continuous wave (c.w.) techniques. It is perhaps surprising then to find that so little use is made of similar pulse methods in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). Pulse methods are, of course, more complex and more costly than c.w. techniques. No pulsed EPR system could compete in simplicity and economy with the standard form of EPR spectrometer, an instrument which differs little, except for miniaturization of circuitry and some improvements in engineering, from spectrometers constructed over twenty years ago. But complexity and cost rarely stand in the way of instrumental development when there is a clearly perceived experimental advantage.
