    A general formula is derived for the measure in the functional integral over configuration space, for singular systems. It extends Fradkin's result given for regular, essentially non-linear systems. Particular cases, up to the most general one of a singular bosonic-fermionic system with both kinds of constraints, are considered. Justification of the Faddeev-Popov Ansatz for quantization of gauge theories in non-covariant gauges is thus given. Pure electrodynamics in the radiation gauge is treated in detail.
