Superoxygenated Water as an Experimental Sample for NMR Relaxometry

Abstract: Measuring the oxygen content in superoxygenated table waters and following the oxygen loss upon storage of such waters in open containers is presented as an experiment for NMR relaxometry in the student lab. The influence of dissolved paramagnetic oxygen molecules on the relaxation behaviour of the water protons is both of interest as a possible source of artifacts in NMR spectroscopy and as a possible contrast mechanism in biomedical applications of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

“…Dissolved oxygen was not removed from water by nitrogen bubbling or other techniques, even if its presence leads to an increase of the relaxation rates. [31,32] Indeed, the influence of O 2 was considered as rather small when compared with other sources of errors in the measurement of relaxation rates as sample temperature fluctuations. The experiments were performed at three different pHs using different buffers: at pH 2 (KCl/HCl), at pH 3 (NaCl/Glycine/HCl), and at pH 4 (sodium acetate/acetic acid) or (sodium citrate/HCl).…”
