title: Review: radiolabeled polymers containing covalently bound (3) H and (14) C.
abstract: Radiolabeled compounds are invaluable tools used to study synthetic and biological processes. Radiolabeled polymers find uses in mechanistic pathway elucidation, bioincorporation studies, biodegradation studies, and drug delivery applications. This literature review examines the syntheses (or biosyntheses), physical properties, and applications of radiolabeled polymers which contain covalently bound tritium and carbon-14 atoms.
