## Abstract The enzymatic synthesis of l‐tryptophan and its derivative 5′‐hydroxy‐l‐tryptophan labeled with deuterium and tritium at the α‐carbon position is reported. The mixture containing __S__‐methyl‐l‐cysteine, indole or 5‐hydroxyindole dissolved in deuteriated or tritiated water has been conv
Precise staging of neuroendocrine tumors (NET) using positron emission tomography (PET) tracers visualizing their specific metabolic activity is of interest. Besides [ 18 F]FDOPA, staging NET with carbon-11 labeled 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) is reported in recent literature. We implemented the mult
