Article Title: | Technical challenges associated with the radiolabeling of monoclonal antibodies utilizing short-lived, positron emitting radionuclides |
Abstract: | Many factors, both physical and chemical, affect the radiolabeling of a chemical compound. These factors add a new dimension of complexity when the labeling of monoclonal antibodies is attempted with short-lived, positron emitting radionuclides. A lack of appreciation for the unique chemical separations associated with the radionuclide incorporated into the synthetic precursor can often lead to unexpected or non-reproducible results. © 1991. |
