Abstract
We report a new reaction-based approach for the detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) using hyperpolarized 13C magnetic resonance imaging (13C MRI) and the H2O 2-mediated oxidation of α-ketoacids to carboxylic acids. 13C-Benzoylformic acid reacts selectively with H2O 2 over other reactive oxygen species to generate 13C- benzoic acid and can be hyperpolarized using dynamic nuclear polarization, providing a method for dual-frequency detection of H2O2. Phantom images collected using frequency-specific imaging sequences demonstrate the efficacy of this responsive contrast agent to monitor H2O 2 at pre-clinical field strengths. The combination of reaction-based detection chemistry and hyperpolarized 13C MRI provides a potentially powerful new methodology for non-invasive multi-analyte imaging in living systems.
