Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy remains one of the core analytical platforms for metabolomics, providing complementary chemical information to others, such as mass spectrometry, and offering particular advantages in some areas of research on account of its inherent robustness, reproducibility, and phenomenal dynamic range [...]

The structure of heparosan capsular polysaccharide (CPS) has been determined using enzymatic digestion with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Previous errors in the assignment of the glycolipid acceptor structure, from which heparosan is extended, have been corrected. The structure of heparosan CPS is GlcNAc α-1,[4GlcA β-1,4GlcNAc α-1,]n4GlcA β-1,[4Kdo β-2,7Kdo β-2,]0 or 14Kdo β-2,7Kdo β-2,4Kdo β-2,7Kdo β-2,4Kdo β-2,7Kdo β-2,4Kdo β-PG-I (C16:0 or C18:0) (where n is ~250 for a CPS of 100 kDa).

The study described the isolation of β-D-galactopyranoside seco-phytoporphyrin from Atropa belladonna and Solanum tuberosum yellow leaves. Column chromatography was applied for its isolation. The UV-Vis, mass spectrometry and NMR spectroscopy were used for the structure confirmation. The results demonstrate that the two plants that the same chlorophyll catabolite structure.

This report reviews current knowledge of sperm metabolomics analysis using proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1 H-NMR) with particular emphasis on human and farm animals. First, we present the benefits of NMR over other techniques to identify sperm metabolites and then describe the specific methodology required for NMR sperm analysis, stressing the importance of analyzing metabolites extracted from both the hydrophilic and lipophilic phases. This is followed by a description of advances produced to date in the use of NMR to diagnose infertility in humans and to identify metabolic differences among the sperm of mammalian herbivore, carnivore, and omnivore species. This last application of NMR mainly seeks to explore the possible use of lipids to fuel sperm physiology, contrary to previous theories that glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) are the only sources of sperm energy. This review describes the use of NMR to identify sperm and seminal plasma metabolites as possible indicators of semen quality, and to examine the metabolites needed to maintain sperm motility, induce their capacitation, and consequently, to predict animal fertility.
