Inverse Solvent Isotope Effects in Enzyme-Catalyzed Reactions

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Solvent isotope effects have long been used as a mechanistic tool for determining enzyme mechanisms. Most commonly, macroscopic rate constants such as kcat and kcat/Km are found to decrease when the reaction is performed in D2O for a variety of reasons ...

Isotope Effects as New Proxies for Organic Pollutant Transformation

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2014
Assessing the pathways and rates of organic pollutant transformation in the environment is a major challenge due to co-occurring transport and degradation processes. Measuring changes of stable isotope ratios (e.g. 13C/12C, 2H/1H, 15N/14N) in individual

Ab initio simulations of the kinetic properties of the hydrogen monomer on graphene

open access: yes, 2010
The understanding of the kinetic properties of hydrogen (isotopes) adatoms on graphene is important in many fields. The kinetic properties of hydrogen-isotope (H, D and T) monomers were simulated using a composite method consisting of density functional ...

Extreme enrichment in atmospheric 15N15N. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Molecular nitrogen (N2) comprises three-quarters of Earth's atmosphere and significant portions of other planetary atmospheres. We report a 19 per mil (‰) excess of 15N15N in air relative to a random distribution of nitrogen isotopes, an enrichment that ...

Evaluation of Poorly Soluble Drugs’ Dissolution Rate by Laser Scattering in Different Water Isotopologues

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
The most important task in the design of dosage forms is to modify the pharmaceutical substances structure in order to increase solubilization, targeted delivery, controlled rate of drug administration, and its bioavailability.

Development of an advanced on-line position-specific stable carbon isotope system and application to methyl tert-butyl ether [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present an advanced system for on-line position-specific carbon isotope analysis. The main limitation of on-line intramolecular isotope ratio measurements has been that optimal pyrolytic fragments are obtained mostly at temperatures where the analyte ...

Thallium Isotope Fractionation During Magma Degassing: Evidence From Experiments and Kamchatka Arc Lavas

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2021
Thallium (Tl) isotope ratios are an emerging tool that can be used to trace crustal recycling processes in arc lavas and ocean island basalts (OIBs). Thallium is a highly volatile metal that is enriched in volcanic fumaroles, but it is unknown whether ...

Quantum-instanton evaluation of the kinetic isotope effects [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Chemical Physics, 2005
A general quantum-mechanical method for computing kinetic isotope effects is presented. The method is based on the quantum-instanton approximation for the rate constant and on the path-integral Metropolis–Monte Carlo evaluation of the Boltzmann operator matrix elements.

Nitrogen isotopic fractionation during abiotic synthesis of organic solid particles

open access: yes, 2014
The formation of organic compounds is generally assumed to result from abiotic processes in the Solar System, with the exception of biogenic organics on Earth.
