Fusion Science and Technology / Volume 8 / Number 2P2 / September 1985 / Pages 2265-2272

Research and Development / Proceedings of the Second National Topical Meeting on Tritium Technology in Fission, Fusion and Isotopic Applications (Dayton, Ohio, April 30 to May 2, 1985) / dx.doi.org/10.13182/FST85-A24618

Methods for tritium labeling of peptides and proteins by chemical synthesis, catalytic H-T exchange and radiation-induced labeling are discussed, and a mechanistic model for the labeling of peptides and proteins by microwave discharge activation of tritium gas is proposed.
