Abstract

Pulsed field gradient spin echo high resolution magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a powerful technique to characterize confined biosystems. We used this approach to assess the diffusion of solvent and reaction species within sol–gel matrices differing in enzyme loading.
