Abstract

Storage of radiochemicals is a significant practical problem. Storage as a solution in various solvents was compared to the storage as a neat oil or solid over an extended period of time. Dichloromethane, a solvent previously not recommended for storage, was found to be a good choice in certain solvent mixtures. Addition of methylsulfide or 2‐methyl‐2‐butene was shown to reduce the radiochemical decomposition by a factor of 1.7–3.2 in ethanol‐free solvents. General points to consider for storage of radiochemicals are discussed. Radiochemical purity was determined by HPLC. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

A systematic study has been made of the uptake of lysozyme by various contact lens materials. Lens uptake of 14 Cmethylated lysozyme was assessed using simple to complex artificial tear solutions. The data reflect prominent uptake by Group IV (ionic, high-water-content) hydrogel lenses, consistent w
