1. High cost of deuterated NMR solvents: Deuterated NMR solvents are significantly more expensive than their non-deuterated counterparts. The high cost of deuterated solvents can act as a restraint, especially for small-scale research facilities and academic institutions with budget constraints.
2. Limited availability of deuterium: Deuterium, the stable isotope of hydrogen used in the production of deuterated solvents, has limited availability. The scarcity of deuterium can impact the supply chain and production of deuterated NMR solvents, potentially leading to supply shortages and increased prices.
3. Stringent regulations and compliance requirements: The production and handling of deuterated NMR solvents are subject to stringent regulations and compliance requirements, particularly in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. Meeting these regulatory standards can add to the production costs and create barriers for market entry for new suppliers.
