Abstract: | The solid state 13C CPMAS NMR spectra of plant cell walls are often complex owing to superposition of resonances from different polysaccharides and the heterogeneity of the cell wall assembly. In this paper, we describe the application of a set of proton relaxation-induced spectral editing (PRISE) experiments which combine 1H relaxation properties (T1, T1ρ, T2) with 13C high resolution spectroscopy (CPMAS) to relate the dynamics of the plant cell walls and model systems to their domain structural details. With PRISE it has been found that in plant cell wall materials, cellulose is always associated with the long components of spin–lattice relaxation in both the laboratory and rotating frames whereas non-cellulose polysaccharides (pectin and hemicellulose) are associated with the short ones. For the proton T2 relaxation, cellulose is only associated with the short component (below 20 μs), pectin contributes to both the short component and the long one. |
