Location of chloroplast membrane resonances in high resolution 13C-NMR spectrum of spinach leaves.
Spinach leaves were studied by high resolution 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The spectra obtained, though highly complex, showed some distinct resonances assignable to carbons of lipids of the chloroplast membranes, thereby offering a novel way for studying the chloroplast membranes in situ.
