| pubmed-article:2683981 | pubmed:abstractText | The increased availability of an extensive range of stable isotope-labelled substrates and their ever decreasing cost, as well as the availability of sensitive analytical instruments, suggests that stable isotopes will increasingly be employed in all branches of medical research. It seems likely that within the near future they will totally replace radioactive isotopes in quantitative metabolic studies involving human subjects. | lld:pubmed |
