Carbon-13 (13C)（Cat No.:S000531） is a stable isotope of carbon, distinguished from the more common carbon-12 (12C) by the presence of an extra neutron. Constituting about 1.1% of naturally occurring carbon, 13C is non-radioactive and has applications across various scientific fields. In research, it is extensively used in carbon dating and as a tracer in metabolic studies to track carbon pathways and reactions within organisms. 13C is also vital in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, providing detailed insights into molecular structures and dynamics, and enhancing our understanding of chemical and biological processes.
