Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Synthesis and Applications of Isotopically Labelled Compounds provides a wide-ranging, authoritative and comprehensive coverage of the most recent advances in the synthesis, production and applications of stable and radioactive isotopes. This volume focuses on significant growth areas including applications of isotopes in clinical research and medicine, advances in the analysis of isotopically labelled compounds, novel approaches to compounds labelled with isotopes of hydrogen, applications of isotopes in organic and bio-organic reaction mechanisms, isotopes in macro-molecules, applications of isotopes in metabolism and toxicology, production of stable isotopes and radioisotopes and applications of isotopes in pharmaceutical and agricultural research. Contributions are drawn from major research groups around the world providing an invaluable information and reference source to anyone involved in the production of isotopes, the synthesis and analysis of stable or radioactive isotopically labelled compounds, the applications of short-lived isotopes, drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics, pharmaceutical research and development, clinical research, biosynthesis, handling radioisotopes, laboratory design and other related areas.
