The radiotracer method is clearly one of the most powerful tools in scientific research. Despite the number of excellent volumes that have appeared during the past two decades describing radioisotope techniques, it appears that a need still exists for a systematic treatment of this subject which covers the necessary fundamental background as well as up-to-date developments, such as liquid scintillation counting. As the title implies, this volume is written primarily for students and investigators in the biological sciences. However, the approach and contents will be found equally worthwhile by readers in the physical, medical, and engineering sciences. Specifically, the purpose is to provide general background information in nuclear physics and radiochemistry and to stress the considerations of radiotracer experimental design necessary for the successful application of radioactive isotopes as a research tool. The organization of the text stems both from the authors' research interests and, more importantly, from teaching experience involving students from the various fields of biology. The logical development of the subject matter is described in detail in the Introduction. The presentation is divided into three major portions. The first division describes the nature and characteristics of radionuclides, radioactivity detection methods, and various practical considerations in the use of radioisotopes as tracers in biological systems impossibility of completely and adequately treating all the facets of radiotracer methodology in a work of this size. In fact, to attempt to do so would destroy its usefulness as an introductory volume. Clearly then, the approach taken and the topics emphasized are subject to the personal views and background experiences of the authors.…
