The present study demonstrates the use of the
hydrophobic radical 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH)
to polarize acidic metaboilc precursors such as acetic
acid (AcOH) and pyruvic acid (PA). Additional, we
describe a complete atumated protocol that includes
rapid dissolution and transfer, filtration and infusion
of radical free solution to an animal. Polarization
efficiency is quantified and the aplicablitiy to
in
vivo
13
C
MRS study of hyperpolarized AcOH and PA metabolism is
presented.
