Abstract

Investigation, manufacture, and application of isotopes are highly variable and is determined by the different areas of science and technique. The range of the application of isotopes is exclusively wide: starting with the investigation of universal principle of the structure matter and common normality evolution of Universe and finished by different biochemical process in living organisms as well as special technical applications. The presence of isotopes and isotope effect in nature serves the bright illustration of the mutual connection between simplicity and complexity in science.
