Definition of deuterated in English:
deuterated
(also deuteriated)
adjective ˈdjuːtəreɪtɪdˈd(y)o͞odəˌrādəd
Chemistry (of a compound) in which the ordinary isotope of hydrogen has been replaced with deuterium.
Example sentencesExamples
- It must be remembered that the deuterated compounds have a lower Tm than the nondeuterated compounds.
- They then dissolved the sample in deuterated acetone and filtered it before running the NMR spectra.
- Quadrupole splittings of the dominant spectral feature were considerably smaller than the value of - 40 kHz expected for deuterated alanine methyl groups on immobilized peptides.
- The activation energy is greater and the rate of the reaction is correspondingly less for the deuterated compounds.
- For 2 H-NMR experiments, each sample contained 10 mg of deuterated lipid.
Derivatives
noundjuːtəˈreɪʃ(ə)n
Chemistry The difference spectra of amide I bands at similar time points of deuteration directly indicate differences in the dynamic structure of the protein in the two samples.
Example sentencesExamples

- Neutron diffraction determinations of the methyl distribution using specific deuteration will resolve the issue.
- As such, for any characteristic of PYP, in which exchangeable protons play a significant role, it might be possible to observe a deuterium isotope effect upon deuteration of the exchangeable protons.
- The results indicate that also in viscous solutions, where bimolecular quenching reactions are inhibited, deuteration of the ring nitrogen does not affect the lifetime of NATA.
