I need to make a stock solution for radioisotopic incubations of freshwater sediments to study dark primary productivity but I have some confusion as to how I calculate the concentration of 14C sodium bicarbonate addition and how to get a final activity of 3uCi.
Does anyone know how to go about this step by step?
From the manufacturer:
Revvity: [14C] Sodium Bicarbonate, 5mCi (185MBq)
Specific Activity: 58mCi/mmol
I have no idea where to start with this, any help would be greatly appreciated!
