Radionuclide: Applications, Standards & Products

A radionuclide (radioactive nuclide, radioisotope or radioactive isotope) is a nuclide that is unstable and known to undergo radioactive decay into a different nuclide, which may be another radionuclide (see decay chain) or be stable. Radiation emitted by radionuclides is almost always ionizing radiation because it is energetic enough to liberate an…
