  2. Isotopic labeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopic_labeling

    In this technique, one or more of the atoms of the molecule of interest is substituted for an atom of the same chemical element, but of a different isotope (like a radioactive isotope used in radioactive tracing). Because the labeled atom has the same number of protons, it will behave in almost exactly the same way as its unlabeled counterpart ...

  3. Radioactive tracer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioactive_tracer

    A radioactive tracer, radiotracer, or radioactive label is a synthetic derivative of a natural compound in which one or more atoms have been replaced by a radionuclide (a radioactive atom). By virtue of its radioactive decay , it can be used to explore the mechanism of chemical reactions by tracing the path that the radioisotope follows from ...

  4. Monoisotopic element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoisotopic_element

    Monoisotopic elements are characterized, except in one case, by odd numbers of protons (odd Z), and even numbers of neutrons. Because of the energy gain from nuclear pairing, the odd number of protons imparts instability to isotopes of an odd Z , which in heavier elements requires a completely paired set of neutrons to offset this tendency into ...

  5. Radiometric dating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiometric_dating

    One of its great advantages is that any sample provides two clocks, one based on uranium-235's decay to lead-207 with a half-life of about 700 million years, and one based on uranium-238's decay to lead-206 with a half-life of about 4.5 billion years, providing a built-in crosscheck that allows accurate determination of the age of the sample ...

  6. Radioactivity in the life sciences - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioactivity_in_the_life...

    Due to pre-calibration and efficiency issues this number is never seen on a label; the values often found are 800, 3000 and 6000 Ci/mmol. With this number it is possible to calculate the total chemical concentration and the hot-to-cold ratio. "Calibration date" is the date in which the vial's activity is the same as on the label.

  7. Table of nuclides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_nuclides

    A table or chart of nuclides is a two-dimensional graph of isotopes of the elements, in which one axis represents the number of neutrons (symbol N) and the other represents the number of protons (atomic number, symbol Z) in the atomic nucleus. Each point plotted on the graph thus represents a nuclide of a known or hypothetical chemical element.

  8. Radiochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiochemistry

    Radiochemistry is the chemistry of radioactive materials, where radioactive isotopes of elements are used to study the properties and chemical reactions of non-radioactive isotopes (often within radiochemistry the absence of radioactivity leads to a substance being described as being inactive as the isotopes are stable).

  9. Radionuclide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radionuclide

    Radioactive nonprimordial, but naturally occurring on Earth. 61 347 Carbon-14 (and other isotopes generated by cosmic rays) and daughters of radioactive primordial elements, such as radium, polonium, etc. 41 of these have a half life of greater than one hour. Radioactive synthetic half-life ≥ 1.0 hour). Includes most useful radiotracers. 662 989
