background: gallium-66 (t1/2= 9.49 h) is an interesting radionuclide that has potential for positron emission tomography (pet) imaging of biological processes in intermediate to slow target tissue uptake. oxine has been labeled with this radioisotope in the form of [66ga]gallium chloride for its possible diagnostic properties. materials and methods: 66ga was produced in the 30 mev cyclotron (cy...

Background: Possibility to trace-label albumin with isotopes results in information concerning its synthesis, breakdown, and distribution in the intra and extra cellular spaces. The iodination of albumin is a widespread procedure used in scientific studies. Bromine not only is more reactive and less expensive than iodine, but bonds more easily with many elements. Therefore, it could be a suitab...
