A National Biomedical Electron Paramagnetic Resonance and Molecular Imaging Centre

多频连续波和脉冲电子顺磁共振波谱和分子成像仪器将为识别、表征、量化、可视化和操纵涉及自由基、金属蛋白和金属离子的基本化学和生物相关过程提供前沿技术。这项技术对于在细胞和组织水平上验证这些功能过程以及在生理条件下提供宝贵和独特的生物医学信息至关重要。这种协同和高度综合的方法将为确定心血管疾病等主要疾病机制提供新技术，有可能改善和维持健康。

Multifrequency continuous wave and pulsed electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy and molecular imaging instrumentation will provide forefront technologies in identifying, characterising, quantifying, visualising and manipulating fundamental chemical and biologically relevant processes involving free radicals, metalloproteins and metal ions. This technology is crucial in validating these functional processes at the cellular and tissue level and for providing invaluable and unique biomedical information under physiological conditions. This synergistic and highly integrative approach will make available new techniques for identifying major disease mechanisms such as cardiovascular disease with a potential to improve and maintain health.
