Hypoxanthine-d₂ 

Hypoxanthine-d₂ is the deuterium labeled Hypoxanthine[1]. Hypoxanthine, a purine derivative, is a potential free radical generator and could be used as an indicator of hypoxia[2].

Stable heavy isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, and other elements have been incorporated into drug molecules, largely as tracers for quantitation during the drug development process. Deuteration has gained attention because of its potential to affect the pharmacokinetic and metabolic profiles of drugs^[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
