Labelled Solvent
Labelled solvents are high-purity chemical solvents in which one or more atoms are replaced with stable isotopes such as deuterium (²H), carbon-13 (¹³C), or oxygen-18 (¹⁸O). These isotopically enriched solvents are essential tools in advanced analytical and research applications, especially NMR spectroscopy, where deuterated solvents provide a clear background free from interfering proton signals. Labelled solvents also play a key role in reaction mechanism studies, kinetic isotope effect measurements, and mass spectrometry, enabling scientists to trace molecular pathways with high precision.
In pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and materials science, labelled solvents support accurate structural elucidation, metabolite identification, and quality control. Their chemical stability and isotopic consistency ensure reproducible results in both academic and industrial laboratories. As research demands increasingly complex analytical methods, labelled solvents remain indispensable for generating reliable, high-resolution data and deepening our understanding of chemical and biological systems.
