RESUMO
The effect of mixing calcium and oxalate precursors by diffusion at miscible liquid interfaces on calcium oxalate crystalline phases, and in physiological conditions (concentrations and flow rates), is studied using a microfluidic channel. This channel has similar dimensions as the collection duct in human kidneys and serves as a biomimetic model in order to understand the formation of pathological microcalcifications.

One- and two-dimensional refocused MAS-J-INEPT NMR experiments in the solid state (through-bond polarization transfer) involving the highly abundant 31P spin and the rare 29Si spin are described for the crystalline silicophosphate phase Si5O(PO4)6 and complex mixtures of SiP2O7 polymorphs. The evaluation of the 2JP-O-Si coupling constants for all 29Si sites is obtained by the careful analysis of the INEPT build-up curves under fast MAS. The results are in agreement with the crystallographic data, taking into account the various J coupling paths. The efficiency of the experiment is demonstrated by its application to more complex systems such as silicophosphate amorphous gels (obtained by the sol-gel process).
RESUMO
We report the results of the two-dimensional MAS-J-HMQC experiment providing scalar correlations between 29Si and 31P nuclei in solid state NMR, and we give the first evaluation of the 2JSi-O-P coupling constants (approximately 15 Hz) for a crystalline silicophosphate phase Si5O(PO4)6. The experiment is applied to the characterization of complex mixtures of SiP2O7 phases, through editing of 31P spin pairs by the heteronuclear 2JP-O-Si interaction.
