Description
Yurii Shepelytskyi and co-authors study how a cage like molecule clumps in water in a 2026 paper. The molecule is a candidate carrier for a high sensitivity form of magnetic resonance imaging that uses xenon gas.
Solutions of the molecule were tested in pure water, salt water, buffer, and with choline and a blood protein. Light spectra were taken over time, and all bands in the spectrum were assigned for the first time. Sodium ions drove clumping the most, while choline slowed it without stopping it. Two bands in the spectrum proved the best signs of the clumping process, which the authors offer as tools for future studies of this molecule.
