31P NMR investigation of vanadium-treated chick muscle.
The phosphorus NMR profile of normal and vanadium-treated chick muscle was obtained in vivo. The data show that the differentiation of breast and thigh muscles in terms of pH, lipid related metabolites, and bioenergetic parameters can be readily followed. Although the vanadium-treated chicks showed substantial retardation of growth, the only NMR parameter that was significantly affected by dietary vanadium was the pH of breast muscle, which was substantially more acidic in the vanadium-treated animals.
