Proton relaxation was measured in 1H-NMR for saccharide solutions. The proton relaxation curve for saccharide solutions was almost mono-exponential and spin-lattice (T1) and spin-spin relaxation (T2) times were determined from the curve. T1 and T2 were described well by the second order function of solute molality with the correlation coefficient over 0.994. The B-coefficients for T1 and T2 correlated well with the B-coefficient of viscosity and also with the number of equatorial OH groups of saccharide molecules, suggesting that the saccharide solution structure was reflected in these parameters in spite of the effect of proton exchange between water and solute.
