Lipid resonances from mobile lipids can be observed by 1H NMR spectroscopy in multiple tissues and have also been associated with malignancy. The purpose of our study was to investigate the effect of spinning rate variation on the HR-MAS pattern of lipid resonances in non-neoplastic brain and muscle biopsies. We observed a substantial increase in the relative integral of mobile lipid resonances with high spinning rates in non-neoplastic brain tissue biopsies, but only a mild increase in skeletal muscle biopsies.
