In proton spectroscopy there are reports of macro-molecules (MM) in mobile form and therefore with long T2 relaxation time in the literature. Using the novel antiphase editing technique, we demonstrate the contribution of such contaminants to J-difference edited spectra at 3ppm, with implications for editing GABA.
