Abstract: Metabolism of mice was studied by in vivo 31P NMR spectroscopy.spectra of brain,leg muscle and liver were obtained, using a two-turn surface coil.Peaks of PCr, ATP,PME PDE and Pi were observed and their Chemical shifts determined,The pH value of brain is 7.15, according to the chemical shift of Pi.The contaminated spectrum of liver was corrected by subtraction of a muscle spectrum from the observed spectrum.Metabolism of mice brain in hypoxia was studied.The pH value of brain decreased from 7.1 6 to 6.46 when mice died at the end of experiment.

Key words: in vivo NMR, Metabolism, Brain hypoxia
