A typical 175 MHz ¹³C NMR spectrum of the brain and liver extract of the control mouse. Assignment for brain: 1 — C3-Lactate, 2 — C3-glutamine, 3 — C3-glutamate, 4 — C4-glutamine, 5 — C4-glutamate, 6 — C2-GABA, 7 — C3-aspartate, 8 — C2-aspartate, 9 — C2-glutamine, 10 — C2-glutamate. Assignment for liver: 1 — C3-Alanine, 2 — C3-lactate, 5 — C4-glutamate, 6 — not assigned, 7 & 8 — C1-glucose. (a) Brain and (b) liver.
