"This monograph comprises three chapters, each concerning a different aspect of deuterium. Chapter One discusses in detail the factors governing whether deuteration strategies will give rise to a deuterium KIE (kinetic isotope effect), which has many beneficial effects including increased drug resistance to metabolism, which is particularly important in radiopharmaceutical sciences. Chapter Two describes the properties of Deuterium Oxide (D2O), an isotopic form of water which contains two atoms of deuterium and one atom of oxygen, specifically its characteristic shielding action against external stress agents. Chapter Three presents the T-c-state diagram of the Pd-D system and proposes the crystal structure of [beta] and [gamma] phases"--

Deuterium: Discovery and Applications in Organic Chemistry provides a well-illustrated overview of the discovery of 2H or heavy hydrogen, the stable hydrogen isotope with both a proton and a neutron in its nucleus. The work introduces the isotope, its discovery, physical properties, nomenclature, and common compounds, also exploring its application in organic chemistry through classic and recent examples from literature. Finally, the book devotes one chapter to Deuterium in medicinal chemistry and the biological effects of Deuterium Oxide, better known as D2O. - Provides unique coverage not found elsewhere that is presented in an accessible, dedicated short work - Contains practical information and examples on the use of Deuterium (D or 2H, Heavy Hydrogen) in organic synthesis - Presents a detailed description of Deuterium's discovery and applications in the pharmaceutical industry

This book cites the most recent scientific findings to provide a radically different approach to the formation and background of cancer, and also lays down the scientific foundations for a new, effective methodology for curing cancer. The author began his research in the early 1990s while investigating the role that deuterium (heavy hydrogen) plays in regulating biological and physiological processes. A number of leading universities and research institutes worldwide have joined the groundbreaking research. The book examines the most common conventional treatment methods in oncology and introduces the most effective combinations of treatments while providing detailed instructions on using deuterium depletion. Also discussed are deuterium depletion’s mechanism of action, the most important factors affecting effectiveness, and the main considerations when using the method. The method’s therapeutic potential is demonstrated through sixteen types of cancer, results from clinical trials, and specific case studies. One crucially important chapter describes how to use deuterium depletion to foster a healthy lifestyle. The last chapter contains recommendations for use, providing a helpful guide for health-conscious individuals or those struggling with the disease. This book strives to keep a balance between being easy to read or speaking in laymen's terms while providing a professional introduction of the research and clinical application to researchers and doctors. It discusses the treatment method based on deuterium depletion, which offers a tool for curing cancer and other chronic diseases, while also being more efficient and milder than any other oncotherapy up to now.
