Visibility of mammalian hepatic glycogen to the NMR experiment, in vivo.
An in vivo 13C NMR study was performed to investigate whether the relaxation properties of the C-1 carbon of the glucopyranose residues of glycogen changed as the molecule increased in size. There was no change in resonance intensity or linewidth. Therefore, no significant change in T1 or T2 was observed.
