Describing an atom, molecule, or substance that has been marked with a distinctive label, typically a radioactive isotope or a stable isotope, to allow its detection and tracking in a chemical or biological process. The label does not significantly alter the chemical behavior of the substance. This technique is widely used in tracer studies, reaction mechanism elucidation, and medical diagnostics.
