Description

Water-17O is a stable isotope-labeled form of water, where the common oxygen-16 atom is replaced by the non-radioactive isotope oxygen-17. This product is essential for advanced research and analytical applications where precise isotopic tracing is required. It is a critical reagent for scientists and industries involved in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, metabolic pathway studies, and geochemical analysis.

Application

• NMR Spectroscopy: Used as an internal standard or solvent for oxygen-17 NMR studies in organic chemistry, biochemistry, and material science.
• Metabolic Research: Acts as a tracer to study metabolic pathways, water transport, and oxygen utilization in biological systems.
• Geochemical Tracer: Employed in environmental science and hydrology to trace water sources, study groundwater flow, and understand climatic processes.
• Chemical Reaction Mechanism Studies: Utilized to elucidate reaction mechanisms by tracking the origin and fate of oxygen atoms.
• Isotope Dilution Mass Spectrometry (IDMS): Serves as a high-precision standard for quantitative analysis in mass spectrometry.
• Medical Research: Investigated for potential use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopic studies of human physiology.
