Magnetic momentum of an add electron
s = gS
L = gL
N
= 1838
This is the ratio of rest mass of proton to the rest mass m of
electron
Thus EPR energies are generally about 2000 times as big as NMR energies

EPR spin trappingEPR spin trapping
Many free radicals, generated by enzymatic reactions are not stable enough to detect by EPR spectroscopy.
They need to be stabilized to detect by EPR: “Spin trapping”
Spin trap Unstable radical Stable radical (?)+

Hydroxyl radical (OH.)
Nitric oxide (NO:)

Trapping Nitric Oxide Trapping Nitric Oxide
Although NO is paramagnetic, it is impossible to detect by EPR directly, because being small, it relaxes very fast as in the case of O2. Thus special approaches
are required to restrict its motion to get reasonable spectrum.

Pros and Cons of EPR imaging
Not adequate concentration of radicals available in biological systems
Needs exogenous infusion of stable radicals species in organs or whole body imaging
Needs significant reduction of microwave frequency to avoid microwave absorption. This significantly compromises the sensitivity
It is an unique technique to study redox status of tissues, organs or in whole body, which cannot be achieved by other techniques
But….
