Thymidine is a nucleoside that consists of one thymine molecule linked to a d-doxyribose sugar molecule. Radioactive thymidine is usually used in DNA labeling.
radioactive decay
No, graphite is not radioactive.
No, water is not radioactive.
Yes, it is possible for water to become radioactive if it comes into contact with radioactive materials or is contaminated by radioactive substances.
Yes, raw uranium is radioactive.
Radioactive thymidine would be incorporated into the DNA molecule during the S phase of the cell cycle, specifically during DNA replication when new DNA is synthesized. Thymidine is a nucleotide base that is used to build DNA, so introducing radioactive thymidine would result in the incorporation of radioactive material into the newly synthesized DNA strands.

Thymidine- a nucleoside component of DNA; composed of thymidine and deoxyribose
The isotope used was thymidine labeled with a radioactive isotope such as tritium (3H) or carbon-14 (14C). Thymidine is a nucleoside that gets incorporated into DNA during the replication process, allowing researchers to track the synthesis of new DNA molecules.

Thymidine birthdating is a method used to determine the age of cells in the body. It involves labeling dividing cells with a chemical called thymidine analog, which gets incorporated into the DNA of newly formed cells. By analyzing the presence and distribution of these labeled cells, researchers can estimate when the cells were generated, providing insights into cellular turnover rates and tissue regeneration.
