Fig. 2. 1H NMR spectra of elephant seal muscle in vivo acquired
during eupnea and apnea. 1H spectra of the deoxy-Mb proximal
histidyl N
H signal were recorded continuously for 25 min.
Each spectrum required 1 min of signal averaging. During eupnea, the deoxy-Mb
signal is not detected. Once apnea begins, the deoxy-Mb signal rises,
indicating oxygen desaturation. As eupnea resumes, the signal decays rapidly,
reflecting a restoration of the intracellular oxygen level.
