When every single atom matters
Oxygen isotopes are extremely useful for tracing molecular processes, but the isotopes are rare and expensive. Prof. Christophe Copéret from the Laboratory of Inorganic Chemistry explains how his group makes chemistry with oxygen isotopes affordable. The key lies in the efficient synthesis of a small but energetic molecule: hydrogen peroxide.
