M-XYLENE-D10 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

X749417 labeled m-Xylene (X749415) which is an organic solvent used in histology. It is also used after tissue sections have been stained to make them hydrophobic so a coverslip may be applied with a resin in solvent.

General Description

m-Xylene-d₁₀ is a deuterated derivative of m-xylene. It has an isotopic purity of 99atom%D. The rotational spectra (range of 6 and 26.5GHz) and rotational constants of m-xylene and m-xylene-d₁₀ have been evaluated by pulsed beam Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy.
