(1) In paramagnetic materials, permanent magnetic moments arise from the intrinsic angular momentum of individual electrons.(2) The principle of EPR oximetry is based on the broadening effect of molecular oxygen on the EPR spectra of paramagnetic substances via Heisenberg spin exchange.(3) The presence of water molecules surrounding a paramagnetic metal ion can be detected via magnetic interactions with the water protons.(4) When a paramagnetic material is placed in a strong magnetic field, it becomes a magnet, and as long as the strong magnetic field is present, it will attract and repel other magnets in the usual way.(5) The magnetic susceptibility of a paramagnetic material is inversely proportional to absolute temperature.(6) Most samples have susceptibility above 0.5 mSI, indicating that ferromagnetism is dominant with respect to diaand paramagnetism .(7) In RBCs, we hypothesized, different amounts of intracellular metHb would result in different degrees of cell paramagnetism , relative to that of water, and would affect the observed MM.(8) The Curie point is the temperature above which a terromagnetic substance exhibits paramagnetism .
