| | Electron Paramagnetic Resonance |
 | | Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, EPR, is a spectroscopic technique which detects species that have unpaired electrons. |
 | | Free electrons are often short-lived, but still play crucial roles in many processes such as photosynthesis, oxidation, catalysis, and polymerization reactions. |
 | | From the EPR spectra reported by the spin label, they can determine the type of environment (hydrophobicity, pH, fluidity, etc.) in which the spin label is located. |
