In an attempt to detennine the location of glycogen in the liver, could there be any problems of interpretation of the electron microscopic radioautographic images if tritiated glucose were used as the radioactive precursor molecule of glycogen ...

This image is represented by developed silver grains seen over a tissue section, and the fit between the position of the radioautograph-...
