The discovery of nuclear spin isomerism of molecules became an important step toward establishing the quantum mechanical picture of the Universe. Spin isomers have unique properties, which make their study very promising, despite the fact that the production of spin isomers in required quantities is still an unsolved problem. In this review, wide possibilities of the application of spin isomers in the areas from mechanistic studies of catalytic reactions to biomedical imaging and investigation of the past of the Universe using predominantly the most known spin isomers, ortho- and parahydrogen, as examples are demonstrated.
