Detailed explanation-1: -Isotopic labeling or radioactive labeling is a technique used to track the passage of an isotope (an atom with detectable variations) during a reaction, a metabolic pathway or in the cell. The compound is “labeled” by replacing specific atoms by their isotopes. The compound is then added to the reaction.

Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of Radioactive Tracers Examples of commonly used radioactive tracers include tritium, carbon-11, carbon-14, oxygen-15, fluorine-18, phosphorus-32, sulfur-35, technetium-99, iodine-123, and gallium-67.
