Carbonic-13C acid, monosodium salt - Introduction
Sodium bicarbonate-13C is a 13C isotopically labeled sodium bicarbonate compound. Its chemical formula is NaH ^ 13CO3, where 13C indicates that the carbon atom is a carbon 13 isotope.
The nature of sodium bicarbonate-13C is similar to ordinary sodium bicarbonate. It is a white solid powder and is soluble in water. It is stable in dry air, but gradually decomposes in humid conditions.
The main application of sodium bicarbonate-13C is as a tracer in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments to study the movement and transformation of compounds. In medicine, it can be used for 13C labeling experiments on human tissues and organs to understand their functions and metabolic processes. In addition, it can be used as a tool to study the carbon cycle and carbon isotopic composition.
The method of preparing sodium bicarbonate-13C is usually obtained by reacting 13C isotope-labeled CO2 gas with sodium hydroxide. The specific preparation method involves the preparation of 13C isotopes, which needs to be carried out in a laboratory or a special specialized facility.
Regarding safety information, Sodium bicarbonate-13C is a low-toxic substance like ordinary sodium bicarbonate, and has no obvious harm to the human body under routine use. However, as with any chemical substance, use should follow laboratory safety procedures and be careful to avoid direct contact and inhalation of dust. Appropriate protective equipment should be worn during use and chemical waste should be properly stored and disposed.
