Hyperpolarization can provide improved sensitivity for NMR, recently enabling the real-time monitoring of metabolism in vivo. Among the parahydrogen polarization techniques, the signal amplification by reversible exchange (SABRE) approach does not require chemical modification of substrate to polarize. Traditionally, methanol-d4 was used as solvent, which is not suitable for injection into animals. We therefore investigated the possibility of SABRE polarization in more compatible solvents namely DMSO, ethanol and water. In this work, we polarized 3-amino-1,2,4-triazine, pyrazinamide and isoniazid. In methanol-d4, up to -1400 times enhancement was obtained, corresponding to 8% polarization. In water, up to -65 times enhancement was obtained.
