One of the reasons why such promising biomarkers are not in clinical use is the difficulty of detecting and resolving low-\u03bcM concentration isomeric nucleosides with identical molar masses. Recent developments in parahydrogen hyperpolarization NMR methodology address these issues, resolving sub-\u03bcM analytes in urine by fast NMR experiments. We will expand this technology into the detection of urinary nucleosides and other endogenic metabolites. By optimizing sample preparation methods, hyperpolarization catalysts and hyperpolarized NMR method itself, we will provide a new tool for cancer- and metabolomics research. Preliminary results predict sufficient throughput and reliability for cancer screening. The new diagnostic technology will allow early detection of cancers, potentially offering the society large savings in healthcare costs.<\/p>\n<p>Link to ETIS <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etis.ee\/Portal\/Projects\/Display\/c1c13465-d83a-4a79-aada-762fc7f0b950?lang=ENG\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Link to NMR services page can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/kbfi.ee\/chemical-physics\/1443-2\/?lang=en\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Finished projects <a href=\"https:\/\/kbfi.ee\/nuclear-magnetic-resonance-spectroscopy-finished-projects\/?lang=en\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy\u00a0research head is Dr. Ivo Heinmaa\u00a0and current projects are as follows: 1.
