Abstract
► We have measured the isotopic ratio H13CN/HC15N in two prestellar cores. ► We find ratios below the values determined in amine carriers and in the solar wind. ► Amines and nitriles may have different isotopic fractionation sensitivity. ► This would account for the variety of ratios in astronomical objects.
