5 Gy per cycle). A scanning device and/or two-ring PET was used to evaluate the distribution of intraarterially injected FU and [ 13 N] glutamate. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 99mTc-Iabeled microaggregated albumin (MAA) was performed to quantify tumor perfusion and shunting. 5%). The FU accumulation increased with blood flow until optimal flow values were reached. Increasing the flow further resulted in decreased FU uptake. A linear correlation existed between glutamate uptake and FU accumulation.
The principle of this method was a competitive protein binding assay using MAb RA96 labeled with biotin as tracer. For the second type of polymeric Gd complex, polylysine poly-DTPA, we concentrated our studies on a derivative that chelates about 50 Gd atoms per molecule. The in vitro studies showed that we could covalently attach one or two polylysine poly-DTPA molecules per MAb. These results were confirmed by atom emission spectroscopy (AES) studies which demonstrated that we labeled about 50-100 Gd atoms per MAb.
