Abstract
A method for producing a hyperpolarized sample for use in a magnetic resonance investigation has the following steps: a) providing a solid sample (), containing long Tnuclei and short Tnuclei in the same molecules (); b) hyperpolarizing the short Tnuclei in the solid sample (); c) transforming the solid sample () into a liquid sample (); and d) transferring the polarization of the short Tnuclei to the long Tnuclei within the molecules in the liquid sample () by Cross Polarization. The method can provide samples with hyperpolarized long Tnuclei, in particularC orN, in a simple and efficient way.
