Electron paramagnetic resonance in medicine

The own results on electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) investigation of biological fluids from the organism of normal individuals and patients with different diseases have been presented in this lecture. The EPR spectra of blood and blood components, gastric contents, synovial fluid and some other tissues and biological fluids have been considered. A qualitative and quantitative analysis of paramagnetic centers in the organism of volunteers and patients suffering from various diseases is presented in this lecture. Much attention is given to the use of the EPR method diagnostics, investigation of metabolism, free-radical reactions in the development of different pathologies.
