A new electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) method, rapid scan EPR (RS-EPR), is demonstrated for 2D spectral spatial imaging which is superior to the traditional continuous wave (CW) technique and opens new venues for in vivo imaging. Results are demonstrated at 250 MHz, but the technique is applicable at any frequency.

MALDI-TOF was used to characterize fragments obtained from the reactivity between oxidized RNA and the exoribonuclease Xrn-1. The present protocol describes a methodology that can be applied to other processes involving RNA and/or DNA.
