Autoradiography: Detection and Analysis of Radioactive Entities

Abstract

Nida Tabassum Khan

Autoradiography is a specific biological tool used to detect radioactive materials by using X-ray photographic films. A technically simple technique to be used for characterizing receptors and localizing their positions in the tissues. Moreover its detection sensitivity could be enhanced using fluorography by transforming radioactive emissions into light.
