Nevertheless, the various differences in deuterium-containing water (especially affecting the biological properties) are larger than in any other commonly occurring <a href="/wiki/Isotopologue" title="Isotopologue">isotope-substituted compound</a> because deuterium is unique among heavy <a href="/wiki/Stable_isotope" class="mw-redirect" title="Stable isotope">stable isotopes</a> in being twice as heavy as the lightest isotope. This difference increases the <a href="/wiki/Bond_energy" title="Bond energy">strength</a> of water's hydrogen–oxygen bonds, and this in turn is enough to cause differences that are important to some biochemical reactions.

The <a href="/wiki/Neutrino_detector" title="Neutrino detector">neutrino detector</a> is 6,800 feet (2,100&#160;m) underground in a mine, to shield it from <a href="/wiki/Muon" title="Muon">muons</a> produced by <a href="/wiki/Cosmic_ray" title="Cosmic ray">cosmic rays</a>. SNO was built to answer the question of whether or not electron-type <a href="/wiki/Neutrino" title="Neutrino">neutrinos</a> produced by fusion in the <a href="/wiki/Sun" title="Sun">Sun</a> (the only type the Sun should be producing directly, according to theory) might be able to turn into other types of neutrinos on the way to Earth. SNO detects the <a href="/wiki/Cherenkov_radiation" title="Cherenkov radiation">Cherenkov radiation</a> in the water from high-energy electrons produced from <a href="/wiki/Electron_neutrino" title="Electron neutrino">electron-type neutrinos</a> as they undergo charged current (CC) interactions with <a href="/wiki/Neutron" title="Neutron">neutrons</a> in <a href="/wiki/Deuterium" title="Deuterium">deuterium</a>, turning them into protons and electrons (however, only the electrons are fast enough to produce Cherenkov radiation for detection). </p><p>SNO also detects neutrino electron scattering (ES) events, where the neutrino transfers energy to the electron, which then proceeds to generate Cherenkov radiation distinguishable from that produced by CC events. The first of these two reactions is produced only by electron-type neutrinos, while the second can be caused by all of the neutrino flavors. The use of deuterium is critical to the SNO function, because all three "flavours" (types) of neutrinos<sup id="cite_ref-97" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-97"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>97<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> may be detected in a third type of reaction as well, neutrino-disintegration, in which a neutrino of any type (electron, <a href="/wiki/Muon_neutrino" title="Muon neutrino">muon</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Tau_neutrino" title="Tau neutrino">tau</a>) scatters from a deuterium nucleus (<a href="/wiki/Deuteron" class="mw-redirect" title="Deuteron">deuteron</a>), transferring enough energy to break up the loosely bound deuteron into a free <a href="/wiki/Neutron" title="Neutron">neutron</a> and <a href="/wiki/Proton" title="Proton">proton</a> via a neutral current (NC) interaction. </p><p>This event is detected when the free neutron is absorbed by <a href="/wiki/Chlorine-35" class="mw-redirect" title="Chlorine-35"><sup>35</sup>Cl</a><sup>−</sup> present from <a href="/wiki/NaCl" class="mw-redirect" title="NaCl">NaCl</a> deliberately dissolved in the heavy water, causing emission of characteristic capture gamma rays. Thus, in this experiment, heavy water not only provides the transparent medium necessary to produce and visualize Cherenkov radiation, but it also provides deuterium to detect exotic mu type (μ) and tau (τ) neutrinos, as well as a non-absorbent moderator medium to preserve free neutrons from this reaction, until they can be absorbed by an easily detected neutron-activated isotope. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Metabolic_rate_and_water_turnover_testing_in_physiology_and_biology">Metabolic rate and water turnover testing in physiology and biology</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Heavy_water&amp;action=edit&amp;section=28" title="Edit section: Metabolic rate and water turnover testing in physiology and biology"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951" /><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Doubly_labeled_water_test" class="mw-redirect" title="Doubly labeled water test">Doubly labeled water test</a></div> <p>Heavy water is employed as part of a mixture with H<sub>2</sub><sup>18</sup>O for a common and safe test of mean metabolic rate in humans and animals undergoing their normal activities.The elimination rate of deuterium alone is a measure of body water turnover.
