Radioactive nucleotide
The amount of radioactivity in the newly synthesized DNA will be equal to that of the original labeled DNA. Since the labeled DNA is used as a template for replication, the radioactivity is retained in the newly synthesized strands.
The laboratory technique you are referring to is known as radioimmunoassay (RIA). In RIA, a radioactive substance is used to label a specific molecule or antigen, and when this labeled molecule is mixed with a blood specimen containing the corresponding antibody, the level of radioactivity can be used to quantify the amount of antigen present in the blood sample.

Scintillation counter
In genetic testing, a DNA molecule is labeled for identification using a process called DNA sequencing. This involves determining the order of nucleotides in the DNA molecule, which can then be used to uniquely identify it.
To create radioactively labeled DNA, the molecule that must be labeled is a nucleotide. Specifically, one of the nucleotides (adenine, thymine, cytosine, or guanine) can be modified to include a radioactive isotope, such as phosphorus-32 or tritium. When these labeled nucleotides are incorporated into a DNA strand during replication or synthesis, the entire DNA molecule becomes radioactively labeled. This technique is often used in molecular biology for various applications, including tracking DNA synthesis and conducting hybridization experiments.
to measure radioactivity and to make maps
A geiger counter is used to locate radioactivity in the environment.
uranium is mainly related to radioactivity so i think that it is widely used in these types of works.
DNA polymerase
hydrates are mainly used in artificial radioactivity and ............
