Potassium Cyanide-13C,15N（Cat No.:R042506） is a labeled variant of potassium cyanide, where the carbon and nitrogen atoms are isotopically enriched with carbon-13 (13C) and nitrogen-15 (15N) respectively. This modification is specifically used in scientific research to track and analyze chemical reactions involving cyanide, due to the unique signatures of the isotopes in spectroscopic measurements. The compound retains the highly toxic properties of regular potassium cyanide, which inhibits cellular respiration by blocking the electron transport chain in mitochondria, leading to rapid cell death.
