Aromatic Cross-Links in Insect Cuticle: Detection by Solid-State $^{13}$C and $^{15}$N NMR

Cross-polarization magic-angle-spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been used to determine insect cuticle composition and cross-link structure during sclerotization or tanning. Unsclerotized cuticle from newly ecdysed pupae of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta L., had a high protei...
