Usually, the tritium distribution in a labeled compound is analyzed by T-NMR spectrometry. NMR equipment is expensive and its sensitivity is lower in comparison to EPR spectrometry.

In this paper, the possibility of determining the distribution of tritium in a labeled molecule using selfradiolytic decay processes was analyzed.
