Stoichiometric and kinetic study of the 99Tc-DMSA complex obtained with stannous excess: A possible model for the physico-chemical behaviour of the r…
1982
A stoichiometric and kinetic study was made of the 99mTc-DMSA complex obtained in the presence of large amounts of Sn2+. It is demonstrated that the Tc oxidation state is 3+. It is established that the complex degrades to another one if there is an Sn2+ deficiency. These results were confirmed by spectroscopic and spectrophotometric methods.
Physico-chemical study of the radiopharmaceuticals 99mTc-DMSA, 99mTc-EDTA and 99mTc-DTPA interaction with plasmatic proteins.
1989
This report studies the binding rate of the radiopharmaceuticals 99mTc-DTPA, 99mTc-EDTA and 99mTc-DMSA to plasmatic proteins. The proteins bind to the tested radiopharmaceuticals in the following sequence: 99mTc-DTPA less than 99mTc-DMSA(C1) less than 99mTc-EDTA less than 99mTc-DMSA(C2) where C1 and C2 represent two different Tc-DMSA complexes. The thermodynamic study suggests a quantitative relationship of radiopharmaceutical:protein = 1:1 and an almost nonexistent influence of the temperature, which means that the interacting forces in this process are relatively weak.
Elaboration of functionalized nanoparticles : applications as MRI contrast agent
2010
Spinel structured iron oxide nanoparticles open the way of biomedical applications of nanomaterials.Superparamagnetic properties of ten nanometer size crystallites permit to use them in diagnosis such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).The aim of this work was to synthesize colloidal suspension of magnetite or maghemite (called USPIO for Ultrasmall SuperParamagnetic Iron Oxide) stable in physiological conditions (pH = 7.4 and [NaCl] = 0.15M).By classical co-precipitation method, UPSIO were synthesized with a mean crystallite size of 8 nm, with a specific surface area of 110 m².g-1 and an aggregate size of 20 nm. To stabilize these nano-objects, two ways were investigated. Electrostatic age…
Stability of the radiopharmaceutical []DMSA: Study of the ligand exchange reaction with [99Tc]EDTA
1983
Abstract A kinetic study was made of the ligand exchange reaction between [ 99 m Tc]EDTA and DMSA. The results of this study indicate that this exchange reaction is closely related to temperature and pH. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters demonstrate that both complexes—[ 99 m Tc]EDTA and [ 99 m Tc]DMSA—have a similar stability. Furthermore, the existence of an acid-basic catalysis for the global exchange reaction was established, and the catalytic parameters were calculated. These data were obtained by radiochromatography and visible spectrophotometry.
Commentary to 'Early clean intermittent catheterization may not prevent dimercaptosuccinic acid renal scan abnormalities in children with spinal dysr…
2013
The authors aimed to address a clinically relevant issue: do we prevent new renal scarring by early administration of clean intermittent catheterization (CIC) in patients with spina bifida? In 2006, Peter Dik and co-workers presented their results of the concept of prophylactic initiation of CIC combined with antimuscarinic therapy in myelodysplastic newborns. Out of 144 children, five patients had pre-existing renal abnormalities, 69 had an overactive sphincter, 27 had reflux, and six had renal scarring. Five of the six patients with renal scarring were put on CIC and antimuscarinic therapy several months after birth. This study provided prima facie evidence that early initiation of CIC an…
