Abstract: Uses of C/sup 14/ and H/sup 3/ as labels in gas chromatography are described. The labels may be used either in detection or separation of compounds. Radiation detectors designed for use in gas chromatography are discussed, including G-M tubes, ionization chambers, and scintillation snd proportional detectors. A method is described in which separated singly- or doubly-labeled compounds are burned to CO/sub 2/ and H/sub 2/O; thus the activities of only 2 compounds need be measured. It is noted that Br/sup 80/, Br/sup 82/, Ni/sup 3/, N/sup 18/ and I/sup 1/ >s/sup 31/ are also convenient tracers. (T.F.H.)
