CHLOROACETIC ACID, [2-14C] - Introduction
Chloroacetate-2-14C is an organic compound whose carbon atoms in the molecule are labeled with a radioactive carbon -14 isotope. Its chemical properties are similar to ordinary chloroacetic acid.
2-14C chloroacetic acid can be used as a radioactive tracer, which has a wide range of applications in biological, pharmaceutical and environmental science research. It can be used to study drug metabolic pathways, migration and transformation of biomolecules, and chemical processes in the environment.
The preparation of chloroacetic acid 2-14C usually uses the method of labeling acetic acid with radioactive isotope carbon 14. First, non-radioactive acetic acid is reacted with a radioactive 14C isotope source to prepare chloroacetate-2-14C. The specific preparation method can be adjusted according to laboratory and research needs.
Because chloroacetic acid 2-14C contains radioactive isotopes, its safe handling requires special care. When using and handling, the operating specifications and protective measures of radioactive materials should be observed to protect the safety of itself and the surrounding environment. Proper storage and disposal of waste is also very important to ensure that radioactive materials do not pose a hazard to the environment and the human body. When using chloroacetic acid 2-14C, the relevant laws and regulations should be strictly observed to ensure the safety and compliance of the experiment.
