What Types of Isotopic Tracers are Commonly Used?


The most commonly used isotopic tracers in histology include radioisotopes and stable isotopes. Radioisotopes, such as Carbon-14 and Tritium, are frequently employed due to their ability to emit detectable radiation, making them easily trackable. Stable isotopes, like Carbon-13 and Nitrogen-15, do not emit radiation but are detectable through mass spectrometry, providing a safer alternative for certain applications.
