Hi Kevin,
The easiest way to radio label bacteria is to feed them on a radio labeled carbon source. They will take it up and incorporate the isotope into its body.
Working with radioactivity would not be my first choice. You have to be very careful how you dispose of everything and wear extra protection and other safety precautions. Can I ask what you are wishing to do? There may be a way to do it without radio labeling.
