Use of Labeled Nonmetabolized Amino Acids in Biochemical Research

  • Chapter

Abstract

The biochemical investigator usually is pleased to find that a large quantity of C14 or other tracer atom has been transferred from his starting compound to another substance. This article will consider a group of compounds for which metabolic modification to other substances can scarcely be detected, and the experimental applications which this property may permit.

Presented at the Eighth Symposium on Advances in Tracer Methodology, November, 1963.
