β¦ Synopsis
The use of formamidine sulphinic acid as a reducing agent in the presence of technetium-99-pertechnetate and diethyldithiocarbamate ligand has been shown to yield a complex containing a Tc = CO bond. The carbon monoxide present in this complex originates from the reducing agent itself. Evidence is presented which suggests that this carbonyl complex is present in the 99mTc-diethyldithiocarbamate preparation obtained by the use of formamidine sulphinic acid as the reducing agent. Use of hydrazine as a reducing agent yields a complex containing a Tc = N bond. It is apparent that when reducing agents such as hydrazine or formamidine sulphinic acid are used in the preparation of 99mTc-radiopharmaceuticals, the possibility of the formation of complexes structurally different to those obtained by the use of stannous chloride must be considered.

99 Tc mixed-ligand complexes displaying characteristic substitution-inert metal-fragments are emerging as alternative platforms in the design of potential 99m Tc radiopharmaceuticals. Starting from the already well-known [Tc(CO) 3 ] + moiety, this review describes recent efforts in the coordination
To develop insoluble Sn2+ complexes for the preparation of 99mTc radiopharmaceuticals, the adsorption of Sn2+ to macroreticular chelating ion exchange resins having various functional groups was investigated. Among them, a resin containing aminophosphonic acid groups showed a high adsorption capacit
An improved method for the preparation of 99mTc-radiopharmaceuticals containing the TEN multiple bond, in sterile and apyrogen conditions, is described. This method is based on the reaction of [99mTc]pertechnetate with ligands derived from S-methyl dithiocarbazate [H2N--N(R)~C(=S)SCH 3 (R = H, CH3]
As a crucial step towards understanding the mechanism of localisation of radiopharmaceuticals in specific target organs, the interaction of the radiopharmaceuticals 99mTc-DMS and 99Tc-DMS with blood serum proteins was studied. The interaction of 99mTc-DMS radiopharmaceutical was examined from two as
## Abstract A novel and efficient method for preparing ^99m^Tcβcomplexes of radiopharmaceuticals has been developed by reacting [^99m^Tc]pertechnetate with a ligand in the presence of borohydride exchange resin (BER) as a reducing agent. The latter is stable over a wide range of pH (2β11) and thus
