Properties of α, β and γ Particles | Radio Isotopes

After reading this article you will learn about the properties of α, β and γ particles. Properties of Alpha (α) Particles: The alpha particles are doubly positively charged helium atoms i.e. the alpha rays consist of particles carrying two units of positive charges and having a mass of 4 units. It gives helium spectrum. The energies of α-particles are quite [...]

Types of Chemical Labelling: Qualitative and Quantitative | Radioactive Tracer

After reading this article you will learn about qualitative and quantitative types of chemical labelling. Qualitative Chemical Labelling: It is also known as in vivo or surface measurement. Through this qualitative measurement, the rate of movement and uptake pattern of plant nutrients viz. p, k etc. by plants—can be made. Circulation times 'in normal and diseased humans by using Na-24, [...]
