Abstract
A method of choosing the correction factor based on Bloch equation for the quantitative estimation of metabolite from 1H NMR spectra recorded with reduced recycle delay is prescribed. The procedure reduces the experimental time without substantially compromising the accuracy of quantitative estimation. It is based on choosing the correction factors, which depend on T1 and T2 of the metabolite and recycle delay used for recording the spectra. It is validated by studying a mixture of amino acids with known concentration of constituents and human serum sample and it provides accuracy of quantitative estimation to 95-96%.
