NMR method for determining kinetics of chemical exchange by perturbing the magnetization
of nuclei in a particular site or sites and following the rate at which magnetic equilibrium
is restored. The most common perturbations are
saturation and
inversion, and the corresponding techniques are often called '
saturation transfer' and '
selective inversion-recovery'.
