A method for the degradation of radioactive nicotinic acid.

Biochem. J. 102(1) , 87-93, (1967)

A chemical degradation scheme is reported, which permits the measurement of the radioactivity of each carbon atom of nicotinic acid. Nicotinic acid is decarboxylated by heating with copper chromite to...
