An electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) method was used to determine the concentration of the antitumor agent Triapine in BEAS-2B cells when Triapine was bound to iron (Fe). Knowledge of the concentration of Fe-Triapine in tumor cells may be useful to adjust the administration of the drug or to adjust iron uptake in tumor cells. An EPR spectrum is obtained for Fe(3+)-Triapine, Fe(3+)(Tp)2+, in BEAS-2B cells after addition of Fe(3+)(Tp)2+. Detection of the low spin signal for Fe(3+)(Tp)2+ shows that the Fe(3+)(Tp)2+ complex is intact in these cells. It is proposed that Triapine acquires iron from transferrin in cells including tumor cells. Here, it is shown that iron from purified Fe-transferrin is transferred to Triapine after the addition of ascorbate. To our knowledge, this is the first time that the EPR method has been used to determine the concentration of an iron antitumor agent in cells.

A new experimental method and a specially designed EPR cell are described for use in the study of chemisorption reactions. By studying the EPR spectrum of a surface both before and after chemisorption, it can be shown whether unpaired d electrons are used in the chemisorption bond and the nature of this bond. The EPR spectra of a cupric chloride surface, both before and after a gaseous ligand (diisopropyl methyl phosphonate) is chemisorbed, are shown and the results are interpreted in terms of the type of bond formed.

Square-planar complexes are commonly formed by transition metal ions having ad8electron configuration. Planar cyanometallate anions have been used extensively as design elements in supramolecular coordination systems. In particular, square-planar tetracyanometallate(II) ions,i.e.[M(CN)4]2−(MII= Ni, Pd or Pt), are used as good building blocks for bimetallic Hofmann-type assemblies and their analogues. Square-planar tetracyanonickellate(II) complexes have been extensively developed withN-donor groups as additional co-ligands, but studies of these systems usingO-donor ligands are scarce. A new cyanide-bridged CuII–NiIIheterometallic compound, poly[[diaquatetra-μ2-cyanido-κ8C:N-nickel(II)copper(II)] monohydrate], {[CuIINiII(CN)4(H2O)2]·H2O}n, has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction analyses, vibrational spectroscopy (FT–IR), thermal analysis, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and magnetic moment measurements. The structural analysis revealed that it has a two-dimensional grid-like structure built up of cationic [Cu(H2O)2]2+and anionic [Ni(CN)4]2−units connected through bridging cyanide ligands. The overall three-dimensional supramolecular network is expanded by a combination of interlayer O—H...N and intralayer O—H...O hydrogen-bond interactions. The first decomposition reactions take place at 335 K under a static air atmosphere, which illustrates the existence of guest water molecules in the interlayer spaces. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectrum confirms that the CuIIcation has an axial coordination symmetry and that the unpaired electrons occupy thed_{{{{x}^2}-y^2} orbital. In addition, magnetic investigations showed that antiferromagnetic interactions exist in the CuIIatoms through the diamagnetic [Ni(CN)4]2−ion.

Regulation of the use of ionizing radiation for treating food products and agricultural raw materials in Russia in 2017 suggests a wide dissemination of radiation technologies in the food industry, but manufacturers of food products processed by ionizing radiation do not indicate on the label the relevant information. Because of this, the identification of the domestic consumer market of food products processed by ionizing radiation will reduce the number of violations of requirements of state standard State standards (GOST) 33800-2016 “Production of food irradiated. General labeling requirements”. To determine whether irradiation of food raw materials and foodstuff, used the method of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), with each of the food products treated by ionizing radiation has its own characteristic EPR spectrum. In this regard, the aim of the research is to identify the dependence of the parameters of the EPR spectrum from meat, fish and poultry treated with ionizing radiation. Samples of bone tissue (SBT) meat, fish and poultry were subjected to radiation treatment with a linear electron accelerator model UELR-10-10С2 with energies up to 10 MeV. Studies of samples were carried out on the portable automated EPR spectrometer brand Labrador Expert X-band. Found that despite treatment samples of bone tissue with the same dose of ionizing radiation (12 kGy), the EPR signal depends on the type of vertebrates, the structure of the tissue sample, and other factors. Bone samples of beef and pork have a higher sensitivity to irradiation. Recorded a steady correlation between increasing the area of the EPR signal parameters: amplitude is of 0.99, the width of the peak signal, respectively 0,979 (the degree of strength of statistical relationships Chedoke very high). Processing of the obtained results of the EPR spectrum provides a high degree of confidence (p≤0.05) to identify how previously non-irradiated and radiation-processed various meats, fish and poultry.

Background. The evidence exists that radicals are crucial agents necessary for the wound regeneration helping to enhance the repair process. Materials and methods. The lineshape of the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of the burn wounds measured with the low microwave power (2.2 mW) was numerically analyzed. The experimental spectra were fitted by the sum of two and three lines. Results. The number of the lines in the EPR spectrum corresponded to the number of different groups of radicals in the natural samples after thermal treatment. The component lines were described by Gaussian and Lorentzian functions. The spectra of the burn wounds were superposition of three lines different in shape and in linewidths. The best fitting was obtained for the sum of broad Gaussian, broad Lorentzian, and narrow Lorentzian lines. Dipolar interactions between the unpaired electrons widened the broad Gaussian and broad Lorentzian lines. Radicals with the narrow Lorentzian lines existed mainly in the tested samples. Conclusions. The spectral shape analysis may be proposed as a useful method for determining the number of different groups of radicals in the burn wounds.

Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies of Mn2+ impurity in single crystals of diammonium hexaaqua magnesium(II) sulfate have been carried out at 9.3 GHz (X-band) at room temperature. The EPR spectra exhibit a group of five fine structure transitions. The spin-Hamiltonian parameters were determined. Mn2+ enters the lattice interstitially. The EPR spectrum of a powder sample supports the data obtained by single crystal studies. - PACS number: 76.30
