Hydration kinetics, sorption isotherm, and proton free induction decays are measured for Leptogium puberulum Hue thalli hydrated from gaseous phase. Very tightly, tightly and loosely bound water fraction are distinguished. The hydration dependence of mobile NMR signal component is non-linear and fitted well by rational function, which suggest the presence of water soluble solid (presumably carbohydrate) fraction in thallus structures of L. puberulum.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
