Abstract
We have found a new ^111^In‐bleomycin complex (BLMC), which has high affinity to tumor, does not bind to transferrin and is stable in vivo. Distribution in animals bearing glioma, hepatoma, or mammary adenocarcinoma at 48 hours showed: the ratios of tumor to blood, brain, heart, lung, liver, pancreas, stomach, and femur were 1.4‐22.4 times as high for ^111^In‐BLMC as for ^67^Ga‐citrate. In mammary adenocarcinoma, ^111^In‐BLMC bound more to viable and ^57^Co‐Bleomcyin (BLM) more to necrotic tumor. In viable tumor, the concentration of ^111^In‐BLMC was similar to that of ^57^Co‐BLM. The ratios of tumor to stomach and pancreas were higher, to blood, brain, muscle, heart, and femur were lower for ^111^In‐BLMC than those for ^57^Co‐BLM. The ratios of tumor to lung, liver, spleen, skin, and kidney were similar for the two compounds. Tumors were imaged more distinctly with the new ^111^In‐BLMC and ^57^Co‐BLM than with ^67^Ga‐citrate. ^111^In‐BLMC is promising for tumor imaging.

## Abstract A new ^111^In‐bleomycin complex (^111^In‐BLMC) is here reported. Its radiochemical purity was 99% by thin‐layer chromatography (TLC) (Rf 0.65) and in 5% agarose gel electrophoresis in 0.02 M NaHCO~3~ it migrated toward the anode. Autoradiographs of TLC and gel electrophoresis plates sho
