NMR analysis of silk for the interpretation of ancient history

  • 1. Dept. of Materials Engineering, Teikyo University of Science and Technology (Japan)

Description

The aim of this paper is the characterization of archaeological silk with the aid of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). In this paper the nucleus is confined to 13C as a stable isotope carbon which is the most basic element in organic compounds. Among the stable carbon isotopes 12C is the most abundant but it has no magnetic moment and the natural abundance of 13C is only 1.108% and this isotope is frequently used in NMR due to its non-zero magnetic moment
