32P and beta emitting radionuclides in microbiology and cell biology.
Microbiology and cell biology researchers make extensive use of beta emitting nuclides. Because of the short half-lives or difficulty of direct measurement some researchers do not view radionuclide use with proper care and respect. Radionuclide use in microbiology and cell biology research is unique. Review of the isotopes and processes may be useful to the health physicist and research alike.
