Dr. Ruth E. Stark City University of New York Institute for Macromolecular Assemblies, Graduate Center, College of Staten Island Solid-state NMR can be a powerful tool for the study of molecular structure, dynamics, and development of intractable natural polymers and their macromolecular complexes, particularly as a complement to observations made with light, electron, or atomic force microscopy. Materials illustrating both the potential and challenges of this method include fruit cuticles, wounded potato surfaces, and stressed potato tuber tissues, which may be studied either as dry solids or swelled in common solvents. Both one- and multidimensional NMR experiments have been used to investigate chemical bonding patterns, polymer-polymer organization, molecular flexibility, and biosynthetic transformations in these agriculturally important assemblies.
