Deoxythymidine 5'-Triphosphate, [Methyl-³H]-, Tetrasodium Salt, Specific Activity: 70-90 Ci (2.59-3.33 TBq)/mMole, 5 mCi (185 MBq)

Deoxythymidine triphosphate (dTTP), labeled on the methyl group with ³H. Tritiated dTTP is commonly used to make probes for in situ hybridization studies via nick translation, or to measure nucleotide incorporation via reverse transcriptase or DNA polymerase activity.
