Abstract
An NMR technique for the identification of the energy related molecules, AMP, ADP and ATP, is suitably taylored to follow up the dynamics of the glycolitic metabolism in a suspension of yeast cells. Such a technique proves to be efficient to investigate soft X-ray radiation damage as complementary to other physical and chemical assessment.
