 EPR spectroscopy can then detect the presence of transition metals for example in the contamination of materials (eg from chromium, iron or manganese) or in macromolecules (metalloproteins). EPR spectroscopy can then detect the presence of transition metals for example in the contamination of materials (eg from chromium, iron or manganese) or in macromolecules (metalloproteins).
