Improvement in sensitivity is required to detect the weak signals with Fourier transform Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (FT-EPR). In the proposed method, the signal from a wireless coil filled with sample was enhanced by using pumping coil in the regular EPR system. In this study, we achieved approximately 6-fold of improvement in signal intensity compared with conventional FT-EPR system under the simulated condition of animal body. We will also show the results of oximetry using the LiPc in, in vivo applications to measure tissue oxygenation.
